A) The VFD output frequency is mismatched to the motor
B) The motor is being run above its rated speed
C) The bearing housing has developed a crack
D) Electrical discharge through the bearings caused by the VFD

The question isn't whether to do predictive or preventative maintenance. It's knowing which motors get which approach, and why getting that wrong is one of the most common reasons your facility might end up reacting to failures instead of preventing them.

Our guide walks you through how to tier your motors, match the right strategy to each one, and build a plan built around your operation.

Preventative maintenance isn't always exciting, but it’s a lot cheaper than an unplanned outage.

We work with your team to build a maintenance schedule that fits your operation: bearing inspections, laser alignment, on-site balancing, power quality checks, and full motor cleanups. Small issues addressed on your terms, before they become big ones.

Need a motor? We can help.

If you're managing critical equipment and can't afford to wait on the standard supply chain, having a sourcing option in your back pocket matters.

We source new and used AC and DC motors, fractional HP to medium-voltage industrial, and every motor we sell can be modified in-house to meet your specs.
