In the world of industrial machinery, variable speed drives and electronic starters are essential to ensure optimum performance and precise control of electric motors. These devices not only improve energy efficiency, but also extend equipment life by minimising mechanical wear.
Variable speed drives are devices that allow the speed of an electric motor to be adjusted according to the needs of the process. By controlling the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor, variable speed drives optimise the operation of machinery, reducing energy consumption and improving productivity. They are ideal for applications that require dynamic control, such as pumps, fans and compressors.
Electronic starters are devices that control the starting and stopping of electric motors. Unlike conventional starters, they offer a soft start, avoiding current peaks that can damage the motor and the mains.
At Gester, we offer a wide range of high quality variable speed drives and electronic starters, suitable for a variety of industrial applications. Our commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction ensures that you find the ideal solution for your needs.

A variable speed drive (VSD) is an electronic device that controls the speed and torque of an electric motor by adjusting the frequency and voltage supplied to it.
Variable speed drives are commonly used in pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and industrial machinery where precise motor speed control is required.
Variable speed drives help reduce energy consumption, improve process control, minimise mechanical wear and extend the lifespan of electric motors.
An electronic starter is a device that controls the starting and stopping of electric motors, providing a smooth start and reducing electrical and mechanical stress.
Electronic starters reduce current peaks during start-up, protect motors from excessive stress and improve the reliability of industrial equipment.
Yes. Many electronic starters include protection features against overloads, phase failures and abnormal operating conditions, helping to extend motor life.
The correct drive should be selected according to motor power, voltage, current requirements, application type and desired control functions.
These devices are widely used in manufacturing, plastics processing, recycling, water treatment, food production and many other industrial sectors.
When properly inspected and tested, used variable speed drives and electronic starters can provide reliable performance and a cost-effective alternative to new equipment.
