Many progressive end users require validated precision in the manufacturing of new motors they purchase as well as with the motors they have serviced.

As repair service providers to these end users, EASA service centers are often required to comply with the standards as implemented by the original equipment manufacturer. This holds true for the most basic components of an electric motor: the bolts.
