It might refer also to disk drives, which would be of course כוננים. It depends how high their tech is.

agree  Colin Rowe: In the context of "electric motors and drives", I suspect it is more likely to correspond to your first suggestion than to disk drives.

agree  Moti Marom: For instance, see http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_hebrew/automotive_cars_... Lior, הינע is not necessarily a misspelled form, according to the Even Shoshan dictionary.
