Power Master

What Power Master does

Power Master Tecnologia em Acionamentos Especiais is a privately held Brazilian industrial equipment manufacturer headquartered in São Paulo (Vila Ipojuca) with more than 15 years operating in the special drives market. The company designs, manufactures, sells, and services hydrodynamic power-transmission equipment — principally hydraulic couplings (oil and water/oil Hidroflex variants), hydraulic speed variators, gear pumps, magnetic and flexible couplings, and air/oil and water/oil heat exchangers — alongside a comprehensive spare-parts ecosystem covering fusible plugs, elastic elements, restriction plugs, and disc-coupling blades. Power Master holds core technical positions in fluid-coupling design (up to 97% rated motor-power transmission, sizes 274mm–1150mm), proprietary non-carcinogenic fusible plug technology tested at 6x working pressure, and brazed-aluminum heat exchangers stated to be ~35% more efficient than market alternatives. Equipment is homologated by anchor customers including VALE S/A, and key technology integrations rely on ABB Contrac PME 120, EBN 853, and RHD 250 control components. The business model combines custom-quoted equipment sales, multi-brand preventive and corrective maintenance services delivered both in-workshop and on-site, and recurring spare-parts revenue, primarily across mining, paper, steel, fertilizer, and cement verticals in Brazil with selective international installations. Distribution relies on direct enterprise field sales supplemented by a 24h WhatsApp/phone sales and service operation; channel partnerships with German OEMs Rickmeier GmbH (gear pumps) and Sibre/Siegerland Bremsen (industrial brakes and SMART monitoring) provide European product-line access for the Brazilian market.

Brands

• Hidroflex: Flexible hydraulic coupling brand capable of operating with water or oil fluid, featuring external blue protection coating for water applications.

Products and services

• Hydraulic Coupling (Oil) Power transmission coupling that uses hydraulic fluid (oil) to transfer torque between motor and driven machine without mechanical contact. Enables motor starting under no-load conditions, reaches up to 97% of rated motor power, sizes 274mm to 1150mm, and protects against overloads via fusible plugs. Targeted at industrial continuous-process plants in mining, paper, steel, fertilizer, and cement.
• Hidroflex Hydraulic Coupling (Water/Oil) Flexible hydraulic coupling that operates with either water or oil as the working fluid, featuring proprietary blue anodized external protection to prevent oxidation when using water. Offers environmental advantages and lower operating costs versus oil-only couplings. Sold to industrial enterprises requiring water-based fire-safe or cost-efficient drive operation.
• Hydraulic Speed Variator Hydrodynamic speed control element that varies output speed by adjusting oil volume in the working chamber via a scoop tube driven by an electromechanical actuator commanded by a 4-20mA signal. Achieves up to 99.98% operational availability and can be equipped with cloud connectivity for remote monitoring. Supplied to industrial process plants needing variable speed drive control.
• Magnetic Coupling Torque transmission coupling using permanent-magnet interaction across an air gap, eliminating mechanical contact for smooth, maintenance-free operation with long service life. Used in industrial drives requiring hermetic or low-maintenance coupling.
• Flexible Coupling Elastic coupling for torque and rotation transmission between motor and driven machine using rubber elements; accommodates parallel, angular, torsional, and axial misalignments while reducing vibration. Targets general industrial drive applications.
