A Legacy of Expertise
Midwest Power Products & Controls was formed on June 22, 1992, to fill a critical need as a niche market distributor and specialist of electric motors, gear reducers, and gearmotors. At that time, very few people knew how to properly apply or select gear reducers and gearmotors, creating a unique opportunity to serve industry professionals.

Starting with a single product line, Electra-Gear, we have grown to become the #1 Electra-Gear Distributor worldwide. Today, we represent over 50 different manufacturers and serve customers across all 50 states plus international markets, providing expert solutions and same-day delivery capabilities.
