Our Company
Durga & Sundar started Computer Controlls Corporation (CCC), a partnership firm, in 1989 to design and manufacture embedded control systems for machines. CCC's products were consumed by Original Equipment Manufacturers around India. The products were known for its innovative solutions and aesthetics. These products-controlled machines in automotive, textiles, and printing applications.
In 2004, CCC decided to concentrate on motor control products and marketed these products under Versa Drives derived from 'versatile motor drive'. After Versa Drives became popular with customers, a new private limited company was registered as Versa Drives Private Limited in 2010, and CCC's business was transferred to it.
Versa Drives designs and manufactures custom motor drives (namely VFD, AC drives, BLDC/PMSM, Servo). These drives typically combine motor control with logic control to provide an economical solution to OEM customers who require sizeable volumes. A few examples of such motor drives are door operator drives for elevators, drives for textile winding/spinning machines, valve controls, exercise machines, etc.
Versa Drives is capable of making fractional horsepower BLDC motors. In 2012, Versa Drives launched India's first super efficient ceiling fans under the brand name Superfan which won awards around the world for its innovation and energy savings www.superfan.in. After creating Superfan, Versa Drives worked closely with the Government of India's Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), and various agencies, NGOs, and international organization CLASP to bring about a huge shift in the fan industry.
Murata Manufacturing Company of Japan picked up a stake in Versa Drives in 2019. Versa Drives is now coming out with innovative motor drives for electric vehicles, drones, solar pump controllers with MPPT, etc. Versa Drives has partnered with Avnet to market its Versa Vane range of Solar pump controllers.
