Great event with this customer. They sent in a mix of new AND experienced personnel for a full day of AC/DC motor maintenance and best practices. The day starts with an educational PowerPoint presentation, and then after the provided lunch, we move onto real-world parts breakdowns, testing, and procedure presentations. We offer this both at our shop, and on your own site. If you are interested in having your crew members learn more aspects of the trade, sharpen up their rotating apparatus skills, or just learn more about industry best practices contact us today!

They got their money’s worth out of this tired old motor. But when it finally gave up the ghost, it was a great opportunity to throw in one of the new ABB Motors and Drives US vertical motors. Very happy with some of the features - oversized sight glass, large open j-box, and smooth/ quiet operation.

Great work from our youngest machinist. Full re-shaft job on a 350 hp Baldor motor. Finished specs were well under all required machine specs and final installed run outs met the specs of a machine that runs 2x this RPM. Amazing work from a promising young talent within our organization.

Top notch work from the crew on this project. No details missed on these motors and met the customer deadline as needed. Can’t say enough good things about our crew, customers, and the projects we get to be a part of. Removed all 4 motors, transported to the shop, executed a full recondition of all 4 motors, re-installed, and vibration analysis performed for future maintenance trending. All in a matter of a few weeks.
