From the beginning, our philosophy of "You Get More Value with KB Drives" has never changed. Our goal is to give our customers more benefits, better reliability, at lower prices. Although KB originally catered to OEM's (we still maintain a strong position in that marketplace), the early 1980's brought about the beginning of our distribution network. Our broad-based product line has gained worldwide acceptance. These offthe-shelf standard and custom AC and DC motor speed controls sold under our Penta-Power and Genesis trade names and are stocked in more than 30 countries, with over 500 distributor locations. In 1995, we relocated our corporate headquarters to a modern manufacturing facility in Coral Springs, Florida, USA. Total Quality Management (TQM) along with computerized testing and JIT/Cell Manufacturing insured consistent product quality and reduced lead times. What this means is we can make our controls better, deliver them faster, while keeping our competitive edge. We look forward to serving your needs for: AC Drives, DC Drives, Brushless Drives, Low Voltage Battery Controls, and AC Fan Speed Controls. n www.applianceDESIGN.com applianceDESIGN January 2009 15 http://www.thermtrol.com http://www.kbelectronics.com http://www.mgimfg.com http://www.kbelectronics.com http://www.thermtrol.com http://www.appliancedesign.com
