TECO-Westinghouse is a leading manufacturer of electric motors. These motors are used in various industries to drive pump systems, compressors, generators, mixers, macerators, fans, and other rotating equipment.
Company History
Many know the Westinghouse name from home appliances—this brand has been around for over 120 years. However, Westinghouse is also a top manufacturer of industrial equipment. It started with the development of the Westinghouse Gas Turbine Systems Division in 1971, which led to the Heavy Industrial Motor Division in 1975 and eventually the Westinghouse Motor Company (WMC) in 1988.
In 1995, TECO acquired the Westinghouse Electric Corporation and, within a couple of years, decided to change the WMC name to TECO-Westinghouse with a focus on the North American industrial motor market. The company continues evolving and its sterling reputation in the pump industry with exceptional motors and drive control systems.
