Motor Failure Analysis
We don’t just fix motors. We find out why they failed in the first place. Our motor failure analysis helps you prevent recurring issues, reduce downtime, and extend equipment life.
Overhaul and Final Run-Up Testing
Before any motor leaves our facility, it undergoes a full suite of electrical and mechanical tests to ensure it meets or exceeds OEM specifications. Our comprehensive safety and performance testing program verifies the reliability, efficiency, and compliance of your motor—especially in demanding or regulated environments.
- Hi-Pot and Surge Testing to verify insulation integrity and detect winding faults
- No-Load Tests to confirm proper electrical performance
- Vibration Analysis to ensure smooth, balanced operation
- Thermal Testing to monitor heat generation and cooling performance
These tests aren’t just box-checking. They’re your assurance that the motor will run safely, efficiently, and reliably when it’s back in service.
Bearing Replacement
Bearing failure is one of the most common causes of motor downtime. We offer quick, precise bearing replacement using OEM or equivalent to restore smooth operation and prevent unplanned downtime.
Re-leading Motor Windings
Over time, winding leads can degrade, break, or become unsafe. Our motor winding re-leading services ensure proper electrical connections, safe operation, and compliance with insulation standards, without a full rewind when it’s not needed.
Dynamic Balancing (Up to 5,000 lbs)
Imbalance can cause major vibration issues, premature bearing failure, and reduced motor life. We offer dynamic balancing for rotors and assemblies up to 5,000 lbs, restoring balance and smooth operation to your motor-driven systems.
XP Class 1 Division 1 Recertification
Explosion-proof (XP) motors used in hazardous Class 1 Division 1 environments require strict adherence to safety and regulatory standards. Our technicians are trained and certified to inspect, repair, and recertify XP motors in compliance with CSA standards.
- Inspection of flame paths, enclosures, and conduit entries
- Repair or replacement using XP-rated components
- Precision reassembly to maintain explosion-proof integrity
- Documentation and labeling for regulatory compliance
- Final testing and certification to ensure safe return to hazardous duty
Whether you’re maintaining compliance or returning a repaired motor to a classified location, trust our CSA-certified shop to provide the assurance you need to pass inspections and operate with confidence.
