For Harold Beck & Sons, thinking about technology is the backbone of their business. For over seventy-five years, this privately held, family-owned and-operated company has excelled in the design, manufacture, and sale of electric actuators—devices critical to automating the process controls that drive industrial and utility plant operations. From actuators with eight thousand pound-feet of torque installed at major utility companies to shoebox-sized models that regulate temperature, pressure, and flow, Beck actuators help keep the world running smoothly.
Harold Beck founded his company in 1936 in Philadelphia because he was determined to create a better solution to one of heavy industry’s most pressing problems: temperature control.
