Representatives of Bodines distributor network from across the USA and England recently attended the Bodine Electric Company 2014 Distributor Training Conference in Dubuque, Iowa and at their main plant in Peosta, IA. Developed to help distributors increase their understanding of Bodine gearmotors, motors, and controls, the training conference reflected Bodine Electrics ongoing commitment to providing the best possible support and training for their channel partners and global distributors.
The two-day event featured educational sessions on product design, how to select the right gearmotor for an application, and industry specific sales strategies. The conference focused on fundamentals of construction and operation of brush-type permanent magnet DC, brushless DC, and AC Induction drive systems. Hands-on workshops explored basic motor maintenance, wiring, and load-current measurement. Other workshops covered gearhead construction, motor control systems, and application success stories. Capping the event was a tour of the companys manufacturing facility in Peosta, IA.
We know that in todays marketplace well-trained and knowledgeable distributors are what keep Bodine Electric ahead of the game, said Peter Kos, Bodine Electric Companys Distribution Channel Manager.
