Re: CIM acronym

CCL is a very high end motor company (technically a Hong Kong company), with factories in China. They make most of the high end motors for industrial food processors and have a specific factory for wheel chair motors and entire wheel chairs. They make the CIM motor, IFI BAG motor, and MiniCIM motor. I am pretty sure they make the AM 9015 motor and the PG motors from AndyMark.

I have visited that factory and they are top notch in quality and manufacturing processes.

BAG is an internal acronym used at IFI whose name just stuck. I can tell you that the last initial stands for Globe. Those of you that remember the Globe motor and gearbox will understand our love for the Globe motor. We figured we could design a better Globe motor ...
