Warner Electric is a well-known manufacturer of electromagnetic clutches and brakes. With a history dating back to the early 20th century, the company has evolved into a global leader in the industry.

The History of Warner Electric

Warner Electric was founded in Beloit, Wisconsin in 1927 by Arthur Pratt Warner, who was an inventor of great importance with over 100 patents on file, among them the automotive speedometer, a variant of which is still in use in every automobile today. Initially, the company produced products for the automotive industry, but as demand for its products grew, it expanded into other markets, including industrial machinery, aerospace, and medical equipment.

In 1950 the first industrial electric clutch was developed for use on large turret lathes. In the 1960s and 1970s, Warner Electric continued to expand its product line and geographic reach. The company established offices and manufacturing facilities in Europe and Asia, enabling it to provide its products to customers around the world. During this period, the company also began to develop more sophisticated products, including electromagnetic clutches and brakes with variable torque and speed control.

In 1994, the company was acquired by Altra Industrial Motion, a move that helped to further expand its global reach and accelerate its growth. At the end of the year 2022, Altra Industrial Motion was acquired by Regal Rexnord, which made Warner Electric as well a part of Regal Rexnord.
