Cortela Carbon connects you with practical solutions by providing valuable insight into product selection and the diagnosis of technical problems.

Earthing or grounding of your rotating shafts or track mounted machinery is an important aspect of machine performance. This protocol not only protects your motor and generator bearings from damage due to stray currents, but is also an important safety measure for track mounted moving machinery such as overhead cranes and mobile stacker and reclamation machines.

Cortela Carbon caters for any earthing requirement and will work with you to design unique devices where the application presents challenges. Various brush holder designs and brush grades are available for these earthing and grounding applications. Lightning protection is a special application which is also catered for.

Earthing devices we provide include:
• Motor shaft earthing
• Generator shaft earthing
• Propellor shaft earthing (boats)
• Overhead crane earthing
• Ore stacker lightning protection
