Avnet,
Inc. (NYSE: AVT),
a leading global technology distributor, and ebm-papst Inc., a top
manufacturer of motors, fans and blowers, recently marked the milestone
30-year anniversary of their business relationship.
Since 1986, ebm-papst has leveraged Avnet’s world-class supply chain
expertise and deep market reach to accelerate adoption of its diverse
line of air moving solutions in markets including industrial, medical,
lighting, renewable energy, power conversion, IT and telecom.
ebm-papst’s best-in-class products have continued to evolve in response
to customers’ changing technology needs. These products include tube
axial fans, motorized impellers, centrifugal blowers, diagonal fans and
cross flow blowers. Today, ebm-papst’s GreenTech philosophy drives new
product development toward greater economy and ecology, yielding
products with lower power consumption, lower noise and longer life,
while still pushing the boundaries of performance. In addition,
ebm-papst motor technology continues to move from traditional AC voltage
to electronically commutated (EC) and energy saving (ESM) motor
technology.
ebm-papst also offers a line of active cooling solutions for LED thermal
management, which offers superior lumen output and color quality over an
extended product life cycle. Active cooling dissipates heat directly
from the core of the modules, allowing for less thermal resistance and
making the entire assembly more efficient.
“Thermal management has been an ever growing challenge for makers of
high tech devices, and for today’s developers of smart, IoT-enabled
industrial machines and systems, there are few topics hotter than
cooling. ebm-papst’s continued innovation has set the standard for
energy conservation and cooling precision in today’s smart machines,”
said Ed Smith, president, Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas. “Avnet
is as proud to bring ebm-papst’s state-of-the-art fans and motors to our
customers today as we were three decades ago, and we look forward to
another 30 years of supporting ebm-papst as they continue to master the
art and science of the intelligent, highly efficient movement of air.”
“We appreciate the long partnership we have with Avnet, which has
expanded over the years. As a market leading distributor, Avnet allows
us to reach more customers with our industry leading cooling solutions.
The Avnet team has combined our broad range of products with our
localized value-added manufacturing to bring value and service to our
customers,” said Mark Shiring, president and CEO, ebm-papst. “At
ebm-papst, we trust our long time relationship with Avnet will provide
continued mutual success.”
