When a core loss test reveals localized hot spots, or visual inspection identifies physical damage, the ability to repair the damage in a cost-effective manner means the difference between repair or replacement.

Crooked Teeth? We’ve Got Braces!

How Using Clamps When Pulling Magnet Wire Helps Prevent Splayed Teeth

Unless great care is taken, pulling magnet wire from a motor stator often bends or splays the lamination’s end teeth. Bent teeth, or teeth that have been splayed outward at the ends of the core stack, will likely compromise the quality of the repair job. Therefore, we have designed and implemented the use of disc clamps to hold the stator tooth tips in place while pulling magnet wire from the slots. The clamping fixtures described in the photos have helped ensure that we avoid damaging the stator teeth during the stripping process.

¿Dientes Torcidos? ¡Tenemos Ortodoncia!

Cómo el usar discos de retención al tirar del alambre magneto previene doblar los dientes de las laminaciones

A no ser que se tenga mucho cuidado, tirar del alambre magneto al desmantelar el estator de un motor a menudo deforma o dobla los dientes de las laminaciones. Estos dientes deformados comprometerán la calidad de la reparación y hay estudios que demuestran que este problema puede reducir la eficiencia del motor. Sin embargo, aunque esta reducción puede ser pequeña, genera altos costos y desperdicio de energía.

Article

Induction motor stator cores can be manufactured using single-piece laminations, however, for larger stators, or when minimizing scrap material, the stator laminations are segmented. While most service center repairs of machines with segmented stator laminations require no special attention, this article reviews a few scenarios that are important to be mindful of.

Trabajando con Estatores con Núcleos Segmentados

Los núcleos de los motores de inducción se pueden fabricar con laminaciones de una sola pieza, sin embargo, para estatores muy grandes o cuando se minimiza el material de desecho, las laminaciones del estator son segmentadas.  Aunque la mayoría de las reparaciones en el centro de servicio de  las máquinas con estatores con laminaciones segmentadas no requieren atención especial, este artículo analiza algunos escenarios que es importante tener en cuenta.

¿El motor consume mucha corriente en vacío, aunque los datos del bobinado son correctos? ¿El motor se calienta con carga de forma inusual? Estas son preguntas comunes que pueden ser resueltas verificando la condición del núcleo del estator. En este webinario discutiremos cómo realizar la prueba de lazo en el núcleo de un estator y cómo analizar los resultados obtenidos, proporcionando información sobre los equipos utilizados, consejos para reparar el núcleo del estator y otras pruebas alternativas.

What watts, what pounds? Working with stator core test results

  • November 2019

  • Article rating: 3.8
Article

The two primary reasons for performing stator core testing in the service center are (1) to verify that the stator core is acceptable for continued use and in the event of a rewind, and (2) to verify that the repair process has not adversely changed the stator core condition. The purpose of this article is to discuss how we determine, assess and compare stator core test results. It is extremely important to understand that variance in test procedures may invalidate comparison.
