Now Hiring - Application Engineer - Control Products in Waunakee, WI
Application Engineer - Control Products in Waunakee, WI
Who We Are:
NORD is a manufacturer of gear units, electric motors, and variable frequency drives for industrial applications. From order processing, to assembly, to shipping, NORD produces high quality drive systems for applications such as conveyor belts, industrial mixers, palletizers, and more.
A gear unit consists of an electric motor powering a gearbox. The motor spins at a specified revolutions-per-minute (rpm) and is connected to a small gear inside of the gearbox, which rotates a larger gear to reduce the output speed of rotation and increase torque. The gearbox's spinning output shaft is connected to a system, such as a conveyor belt in a distribution center or food processing line. Gear units like those produced at NORD are the reason garage doors go up, mixers spin, and rollers form steel.
NORD provides expert advice, reliable products, and world-class service to our customers. Everything we do revolves around those we serve, and we strive to bring new, innovative technologies to market that help our customers’ operations run efficiently and cost effectively.
