BEI Electronics & Crest: A Partnership Powering Precision in Oral Care Manufacturing
QUINCY, IL – October 26, 2023 – BEI Electronics LLC, a leading provider of precision miniature motors and motion control solutions, is proud to quietly play a vital role in the consistent, high-quality production of one of America’s most trusted toothpaste brands: Crest. While consumers focus on a brighter smile, BEI’s technology is working behind the scenes to ensure every tube is filled accurately and efficiently. For decades, BEI Electronics (located at 4100 N 24th St, Quincy, IL, 62305, United States – you can reach them at 412-272-4893) has been a go-to partner for companies needing reliable, robust motor solutions. We don’t make the visible parts – we make the moving parts that make things happen. And in the world of high-volume consumer goods like toothpaste, that’s a huge deal. So, how does BEI connect to your morning routine? Think about a toothpaste tube filling line. It’s not just a simple squirt. It's a complex process demanding incredible precision. Each tube needs exactly the right amount of paste to meet labeling requirements, avoid waste, and maintain consistency. That’s where BEI comes in. We provide specialized miniature DC motors and gearheads that drive the dispensing pumps on these filling lines. These aren’t your average motors. They’re engineered for: Accuracy: Our motors deliver repeatable, consistent performance, ensuring each tube gets the correct fill volume. Even slight variations can lead to product recalls or customer complaints, so reliability is paramount. High-Speed Operation: Toothpaste is produced fast. Filling lines run constantly, demanding motors that can handle thousands of cycles per hour. BEI’s motors are built to withstand that kind of workload. Hygiene and Cleanliness: The food and beverage (and, yes, oral care!) industries have incredibly strict hygiene standards. Our motors are designed with materials and construction methods that meet those demands, preventing contamination. Durability & Low Maintenance: Downtime is expensive. BEI’s motors are built to last, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements. This keeps production lines running smoothly and minimizes costs. Compact Size: Modern manufacturing lines are often tightly packed. We specialize in miniature motors, enabling integration into space-constrained equipment. Beyond Just Motors: A Collaborative Partnership It's not just about selling a motor. BEI works with equipment manufacturers to develop custom solutions. We understand that every filling line is unique, so we offer: Engineering Support: Our engineers collaborate with customers to specify the right motor for their specific application. We consider factors like paste viscosity, tube size, and desired fill rate. Custom Design: We can modify existing motors or design entirely new ones to meet unique requirements. Prototyping & Testing: We help customers test and refine their designs before going into full production. Long Term Support: We don't just sell and walk away. BEI offers ongoing support, ensuring customers have the resources they need to keep their lines running optimally. Crest: A Legacy of Oral Health, Powered by Precision Crest, a brand under Procter & Gamble, has been a household name for generations, synonymous with clean teeth and healthy gums. Maintaining that reputation requires consistent product quality, and that starts with the manufacturing process. “We’re incredibly proud to support a brand like Crest,” says [Insert BEI Spokesperson Name & Title]. “It’s rewarding to know that our technology plays a small but important role in delivering a product that millions of people rely on every day.” The relationship between BEI Electronics and the manufacturers supporting Crest isn't flashy. It’s a behind-the-scenes partnership built on trust, reliability, and a commitment to precision. While you’re brushing your teeth tomorrow morning, remember that there's a little bit of BEI technology working hard to ensure you get a perfectly filled tube of Crest toothpaste.
