A 'Regal' entrance to the UK motor market
19 April 2012
One of the world’s largest and fastest growing electric motor manufacturers chose this year’s Drives and Controls show for the UK unveiling of its new group structure and product portfolio. Regal Beloit took this opportunity of highlighting its local support, huge EU stock and modification facility, alongside an enhanced premium range of Rotor brand motors and the official launch of the Marathon motor range to the UK.

“Our Regal Beloit and Marathon Electric brands are well known across America, while Rotor has a strong and loyal client base across the UK and Europe” says Lucie Hodkova, National Sales Manager for Regal Beloit UK. “Since the acquisition of Rotor UK by Regal Beloit in September 2010, we’ve obviously expanded both the range and scope of products on offer. We’re also keen to demonstrate the reach of the group as a whole, and [at Drives & Controls 2012 we showcased] our multiple facilities, offices and factories across the world.”
Regal Beloit group operates its own manufacturing base, giving it complete control over quality and responsible sourcing of raw materials. Recent investment in the company’s Netherlands facility has seen Regal Beloit open the doors this year to what is believed to be the largest stock and motor modification facility in Europe, providing direct support and availability to the UK market.
With the huge facility being just a few hours’ drive away from the UK, local UK stock is now being supported by an unparalleled level of motor availability. From fractional hp to Megawatt machines, they can all be ordered and despatched for delivery – same day, something which the company believes no other brand can achieve in the UK with the same ease and convenience.
Based in Wellingborough, Regal Beloit UK brings together the Marathon Electric, Leeson, and Rotor nl brands, providing a range of single-phase and three-phase motors, including motors for unconventional or challenging environments such as ATEX explosion-proof motors, marine motors, and vibrator motors. The company also provides coolant pumps for machine tools, frequency inverters and worm gearboxes, as well as motor accessories, brakes, forced ventilation units, encoders, and slide rails.
