Baldor wins Plant Engineering Awards
Baldor and Dodge products have won prestigious Plant Engineering Product of the Year Awards for 2007. Three of them! Plant Engineering magazine is circulated to over 100,000 plant engineering and maintenance professionals who recommend, specify or buy industrial products. It serves a very important industrial market.
Dodge’s Right Angle Torque‐Arm won a silver award and Dodge’s Magna Gear won a bronze award. Baldor brushless servomotors won a silver award.
Each year Plant Engineering selects a panel of plant and maintenance engineers from their circulation to screen product entries. The highest rated products then appear in their November issue for on‐line voting. Plant Engineering editors do not vote; only their readers, who are users of Baldor products.
It is an honor to win a Plant Engineering Product of the Year Award and a testimony to Baldor and Dodge engineers who develop quality products that provide the highest value available.

Variable speed drives lower the costs of automation applications - even washdown duty
Baldor launches a family of frequency inverter drives for AC motors that has the ability to reduce total cost of ownership substantially for common process automation equipment. The drives offer a very simple user interface that provides 'out of the box' solutions for a large proportion of variable speed motor control applications. They are also available with a range of environmental protection, from a standard industrial housing to a dust- and splash-proof version (IP55 or NEMA 12), and even a full washdown duty (IP66 or NEMA 4X) variant. The latter version is unusual in this smaller power sector of the market.
