Why Choose Baldor Motors?

It’s simple…Baldor manufactures quality motors.  When the company was founded in 1920, there was one clear mission…make a better motor. 

Baldor understood back then that lower quality motors burn out faster and the replacement cost was not the main problem when this occurred.  It was no air movement which had a direct impact on people.  Baldor also understood there was a real need for an affordable, dependable motor for industrial applications.  They went to work!

Baldor strives to be an innovator and improve reliability.  They began lowering the energy consumption of their motors in the 1920s.  Their expansive line of Super-E® premium-efficient motor line provides the highest overall efficiency levels in the industry.
