NEMA motors, from the NEMA specialists
April 29th 2008

With a product range now including the Reliance brand, Baldor is claimed to be the USA's leading vendor of electric motors, and has an American heritage that provides in-depth advice and support for automation builders who export to North America and allied markets. Baldor holds considerable stocks of NEMA electric motors in Europe, and can eliminate the long supply chain delays that many machinery OEMs face when building equipment for US markets.

The service is also ideal for maintenance companies who repair motors supplied on equipment sourced from the US — as a new motor often represents a more cost effective alternative to rewinding, especially when the typical energy savings that the latest motors deliver are taken into account. Compared with motors manufactured 5-10 years ago, the use of new high-grade materials means that that an energy saving of 5%+ is often achieved.

Baldor offers free NEMA advice, which can be invaluable for engineers who only occasionally need to specify NEMA products. Why not download our stocked electric motors catalogue? The latest volume details thousands of Baldor Reliance choices in virtually every application area including premium efficiency, severe duty and explosion proof, washdown, DC, vector and brake, plus many application-specific types including pump, HVAC and farm duty.

Stocked motors may also be customised easily and the catalogue details around 100 common modifications that can be rapidly applied before shipment.
