How We Approach Motor Repair Based on Usage
Not all motors are used the same way. A motor running 24 hours a day on a production line has different wear patterns than a motor used a few times a week in a water pump. Before making any repairs, we review:
-
Duty cycle – how long and how often the motor runs.
-
Load type – whether the motor handles steady or changing loads.
-
Environment – whether the motor is exposed to heat, moisture, or dust.
-
Enclosure type – how well the motor is protected from the surroundings.
-
Cooling method – whether it’s fan-cooled or needs external ventilation.​
By understanding how and where the motor is used, we can provide repairs that match real-world needs, not just what’s written on a label.
