Control Techniques 50th Anniversary (Short Film) | Control Techniques | Nidec

How else would Control Techniques celebrate turning 50?

By creating a short film that paves a new way for the future of CT. A story that shows their entrepreneurial spirit, and passion for challenging the status quo. Undoubtedly, innovation, design, knowledge, and expertise are at the core of everything they stand for. Be it past, present, or future, their determination to be the number one drive supplier remains strong.

So, without further ado, meet DM-50, a character who embodies their drives and innovation. Dynamic, and spirited, this character represents our belief that no challenge is too great to overcome.

Sit back, relax and enjoy their short film. They are proud of their history and excited to see what the next 50 years will bring.

Thank you for being a part of the journey!
