In 1905, two years after the Wright brothers powered flight, the Bodine brothers produced their first electric motor for a dental drill manufacturer. Since then, Bodine products have earned their reputation as the standard for performance where reliability and dependability are essential.

If just one thing can be said about Bodine, it's this: Bodine motors, gearmotors and controls are built to last, not to be replaced. It's an unwavering commitment to quality, performance and value pioneered by Carl and Paul Bodine when they built that first electric motor in 1905.

Entering the 21st Century, Bodine Electric is unparalleled in offering single-source solutions for all your fractional horsepower motor, gearmotor and controls requirements, whether they are AC, DC or Brushless DC.

Still family owned, Bodine Electric is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, with an additional manufacturing facility in Peosta, Iowa. Both facilities are designed for efficient production flow incorporating flexible cellular manufacturing and the latest in computerized and automated manufacturing technology.

While designs change and improve, so does Bodine. Our commitment to excellence and the investment in people and technology is a never ending process.
