Stage 1: Investigation, Diagnosis & Testing

Once the equipment is in our shop, we then investigate further to determine the best possible options to repair or service your equipment with speed and accuracy in mind.

Based on this investigation, we then provide a detailed repair quote.

  • Core test before and after burn-off process; treat core as needed
  • Investigate functionality and condition of housings, bearings and shafts
  • Reassemble ensuring all tolerances, bearings, housings, end-play and critical mechanical fits are done
  • Repaint and plate as needed
  • Conduct load or non-load testing/electrical measurements
  • De-installation, installation, electrical wiring, mechanical centering or alignment or any other type of electro-mechanical assistance as required
  • When applicable, motor is tested on our isolated test bed to mimic start up in the field. 

Stage 3: Shipping back to the field

The equipment is then made ready for shipment with shafts blocked, wrapped, and secured to a pallet. Shipped either by our truck, an arranged carrier, or your courier to the specified destination.
