Drive systems are the motion behind industrial production, and at the high horsepower end of that spectrum, the margin for error narrows considerably. Premier's Drive Systems team works across DC and AC platforms, from legacy DC systems still running critical loads in heavy industry to the high horsepower applications found in production environments, marine, entertainment, and more. Whether the project calls for custom drive engineering, specialized bus work, or a full DC-to-AC conversion, the team designs solutions that account for how the drive performs within the larger system it's part of, not just in isolation.
Specialized bus work, custom drive configurations, and engineered components reduce cost and installation time because we design and build to match your current layout.
Troubleshooting, parts, recovery, and long-term support for legacy DC systems. Built for facilities where the drives still run essential production.
Phased conversion planning that addresses the motor, controls, mechanical interface, and commissioning sequence, not just the drive itself. Paced to your operation, not forced.
Engineering, integration, and support for AC and DC drive systems in production environments, heavy manufacturing, and critical infrastructure, where standard configurations cannot carry the load.
Drive systems are critical to industrial operations. When problems occur, your team needs the knowledge and tools to diagnose issues quickly and restore production. Premier offers hands-on training for Siemens SINAMICS AC and DC drive systems, delivered by our Complex Drive Systems team.

Premier's dedicated drives division brings long standing AC and DC drive expertise to your systems, so when knowledge is the difference between a clean recovery and a multi-week scramble, you have access to the bench that still has it. That expertise doesn't work in isolation — drives, controls, automation, and mechanical engineers sit under one roof, designing solutions for the full operation rather than just the drive in front of you.
When an application calls for it, we engineer customized cabinet, bus work, and connection points around your around your specific equipment, footprint, and install environment, which means less downtime, less rework, and lower lifetime cost. We offer solutions designed around your environment and as an authorized service and training partner for leading manufacturers with deep relationships across the broader drive ecosystem, we put the right hardware behind the application, backed by direct partner support.
