HIMOINSA powering up with generator production

HIMOINSA is now meeting demand for its generator units in Argentina through its new production facility located in Santa Fe. Covering an area of some 12,000m2, the new centre has the capacity to produce 3,000 generator sets of between 8kVA and 1745kVA/year.

HIMOINSA is now meeting demand for its generator units in Argentina through its new production facility located in Santa Fe.


Covering an area of some 12,000m2, the new centre has the capacity to produce 3,000 generator sets of between 8kVA and 1745kVA/year. Fitted with Cramaco alternators, these generator sets will be wholly manufactured in Argentina and sold both there and in the markets of Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia.

The new Santa Fe factory has been equipped with the latest technology for the manufacture of all generator set components from Cramaco alternators, to canopies, control panels, automatic transfer switches and parallel operating systems. As a result, HIMOINSA Argentina & Cono Sur integrates every phase of the productive process, from design and engineering to sales.

The generator sets that are manufactured in Argentina have a power range of from 8kVA to 1745kVA. These generator sets, which feature 7139 Yanmar, FPT and 3055 Mitsubishi engines and Cramaco alternators made in the same production centre in Santa Fe, are destined to meet the demand of such sectors as Telecommunications, Mining, Construction, Industry, Rental and Oil & Gas. The company also offers gas-powered generator sets with Yanmar and PSI engines.

HIMOINSA has fully integrated the manufacture of alternators with a frequency of 50Hz or 60Hz ever since it purchased Cramaco in 2004. Cramaco alternators feature shortened 2/3 phase windings that guarantee low harmonic distortion with a value of 4% (THD) by phase voltage and with three-phase linear loads. This prevents any damage to the units and is said to provide greater operational safety and efficiency.

    Atlas Copco is now offering an updated version of its proven QAS 60 generator that is designed to provide greater mobility. A smaller footprint allows for 12 QAS 60 generators to be fitted into a standard container. The firm has made the design more compact as this helps cut transportation costs for its customers, especially those in the rental business. The new QAS 60 is less than 2.4m long so it can be placed sideways on a truck. This allows more units to be carried on a truck and also ensures easier

    Doosan Portable Power was showing no less than four new air compressors on its stand at Conexpo. Two of the four are not powered by diesel; the manufacturer wants to offer its customers more cost effective machines as Tier 4 engines push the price of compressors up. “The price point of the T4 interim and T4 final is getting to the point that contractors are willing to accept alternative power solutions,” said Rus Warner, Doosan’s manager of global air products.
