What voltage and frequency will my machine need?

By I&R Group, Jiaxing. Reviewed October 3, 2026.

China's grid is 50 Hz, so a machine built for China may not match a 60 Hz market or your plant's three-phase voltage. Order the machine configured for your supply, for example 400 V 50 Hz or 460 V 60 Hz, and confirm the electrical specification in writing before production. A wrong frequency changes motor speed and can damage the machine.

• Tell the factory your exact voltage, phase and frequency before they build it.
• 60 Hz markets need motors and drives rated for 60 Hz, not just a transformer.
• We confirm the electrical spec on the quote and on the factory acceptance test.
