Motor Repair Service Experts

Electric Motor Rewinding

One of the primary Electric Motor Services we offer is Motor Rewinding.. it is in our name after all! Rewinding and re-magnetizing are critical components of electric motor maintenance and repair. Our team of experts will rewind your motor to ensure optimal performance and extend its lifespan. We also offer re-magnetizing services to restore the magnetic field to its original strength.

Our expert technicians are trained in electric motor rewinding, which involves the meticulous process of replacing or repairing damaged coils and winding in electric motors. We use high-quality materials and advanced techniques to ensure that the rewinding process is performed with precision, resulting in restored motor performance and extended motor lifespan.


Electric Motor Repair

This service is a little broader than Rewinding, which is a rather specific service. Repairs involve more of a diagnostic approach so we can determine what the problem is that we need to fix. Diagnosing the problem is the first step in our repair process, this is relatively quick and from this, we can better prepare a comprehensive repair quote. Typically, these situations result in the customer approving the quote and we go ahead and fix the motor OR the cost to repair is too high for their budget or when we compare it to the cost of replacing with a new motor.

We use the latest equipment and best practices in the industry to guarantee that your electric motor is restored to peak condition. We understand the importance of quality and take great pride in our work.

Our team is highly experienced and knowledgeable when it comes to electric motor repair, and we strive to deliver superior results. We ensure that every job is completed to the highest standards, so you can be confident that your motor will be running smoothly again in no time.

We take our commitment to quality seriously, and we’re dedicated to providing our customers with the best possible service and repair experience. Our goal is to make sure your electric motor is running efficiently so that you can get back to your day-to-day operations as quickly as possible.

All of our repairs come with a 1-year warranty on the work we performed.


Electric Motor Maintenance

The correct maintenance of any machine is crucial for its operation and longevity. Our team of technicians will perform preventative maintenance to ensure correct operation and replace worn-out parts as necessary. To ensure electric motors’ efficient performance, both the electrical and mechanical components must be inspected and maintained as needed – these components are subject to continuous use, wear out, and can become contaminated with external elements.

Some of the basic preventive maintenance checks we’d perform include visual inspection, brush and commutator inspection, motor winding test, bearing check, vibration test, and the use of infrared thermography in predictive maintenance.


Electric Motor Custom Modifications

We understand that some applications require unique modifications to electric motors to meet specific requirements. One of the challenges is that the lead time on a custom motor out of the USA is sometimes as long as 18 months. Naturally, for most, that does not work. Our team of technicians will design and implement custom modifications to electric motors to suit your specific needs.

Whether it’s modifying motor speed, voltage, mounting setup, or power, we can customize electric motors to meet your exact specifications.
