Managing through this polarizing political climate doesn’t mean that you must choose sides, but we do have to motor on. I have found three tips that help me in my business life.

This article highlights how motor repair service centers can support sustainability goals by documenting carbon offsets from motor upcycling. Rewinding motors typically reuses or recycles over 90% of materials, significantly reducing Scope 3 emissions. By leveraging EPA and transportation emission data, centers can provide science-based reports to clients aiming to meet environmental targets. This approach positions service centers as valuable partners in the circular economy and appeals to sustainability-conscious customers.

While robotic systems are advancing rapidly, their ability to replicate the complex, highly dexterous tasks performed by skilled craftworkers like motor winders, manual machinists and mechanics, especially in bespoke electric motor repair, is still significantly limited. Expert human judgment, adaptability and fine motor skills are not easily replicated by robots today, particularly in nuanced troubleshooting, diagnostics and precise manual repairs.

Este artículo destaca cómo los centros de servicio de reparación de motores pueden apoyar los objetivos de sostenibilidad mediante la documentación de las compensaciones de carbono del reciclaje de motores. El rebobinado de motores suele reutilizar o reciclar más del 90 % de los materiales, lo que reduce significativamente las emisiones de Alcance 3. Al aprovechar los datos de emisiones de la EPA y del transporte, los centros pueden proporcionar informes con base científica a los clientes que buscan cumplir los objetivos ambientales. Este enfoque posiciona a los centros de servicio como socios valiosos en la economía circular y atrae a clientes conscientes de la sostenibilidad.

Large Language Models (LLMs), powered by artificial intelligence (AI), can process and generate human-like text, making them invaluable for a variety of applications, including technical support, documentation, and troubleshooting. Just remember, these tools can be prone to error and when unrealistic or poor prompts are used.

Employee recruitment, retention and succession are all areas that are challenging and infinitely important to business and personal success. Increased employee engagement translates into enhanced quality outcomes and generally positive working conditions. So, how do we get there?

Revamping your employee reward system to shift away from a standardized approach to a more personalized model that offers a variety of options can make a big difference in engagement.

En el campo de la tecnología electromecánica, en evolución rápida, es crucial estar al día con las últimas herramientas y metodologías. Una de estas herramientas que ha cobrado gran relevancia es el Modelo de Lenguaje Grande (LLM). Estos modelos, impulsados por inteligencia artificial (IA), pueden procesar y generar texto con una calidad similar a la humana, lo que los hace invaluables para diversas aplicaciones, como soporte técnico, documentación y resolución de problemas.

This webinar goes through some data verification and redesign examples using the Motor Stats view within EASA’s AC Motor Verification & Redesign software to learn what it tells us and what it doesn’t tell us about our data.

Horizontal and vertical motors have uniquely different requirements for endplay, while sleeve bearing machines bring their own challenges. This presentation examines those differences.

The information in this article provides comparisons of key characteristics of IEC and NEMA motors to aid in evaluating the potential simplicity or complexity of the IEC to NEMA design conversion.

La información de este artículo proporciona comparaciones de las características clave de los motores IEC y NEMA para ayudar a evaluar la posible simplicidad o complejidad de la conversión de diseño IEC a NEMA.

This presentation explores the distinction between a controlled environment and a cleanroom, the requirements for both, and provides details to help you determine if you want to add a controlled environment or a cleanroom to your facility.

Being proactive on behalf of the repair industry, EASA created the best practice repair standard for the industry. This article looks back on this history of this important document.

Durante los 90, las normas gubernamentales para la eficiencia de los motores eléctricos fabricados generaron preocupaciones de que pudieran surgir regulaciones o normas para la reparación de motores eléctricos. Como representante de la industria de reparación de motores eléctricos, EASA respondió buscando el reconocimiento de su Práctica Recomendada para la Reparación como Norma Nacional Americana. Ser proactivo en la obtención de dicho reconocimiento significaría que, en nombre de la industria de la reparación, EASA crearía la norma de las mejores prácticas de reparación para la industria.

¿Alguna vez ha pensado en utilizar un podómetro para sus empleados en un entorno de prueba? Esta idea puede proporcionar datos valiosos que le ayudarán a comprender cuánto movimiento deben realizar sus empleados diariamente debido a la disposición actual del centro de servicio. Al analizar estos datos, usted puede identificar ineficiencias en la disposición actual que pueden no ser inmediatamente obvias.

Have you ever thought about using a step counter on your employees in a test setting? This idea can provide valuable data to help you understand how much movement your workers must perform daily due to the current workshop layout. By analyzing this data, you can identify inefficiencies in the layout that may not be immediately obvious.

This article looks at the installation and removal of quick detachable (QD) and taper lock pulleys.

En este artículo discutiremos dos tipos de poleas: poleas de desmontaje rápido (QD) y poleas con bloqueo cónico y se proporcionarán instrucciones para instalar y desmontar ambos tipos.

Hay una industria que ha estado reciclando silenciosamente desde antes del comienzo del siglo pasado. Así es: Más de 100 años de reciclaje. ¿De qué industria se trata? Es nuestra industria: La reparación de máquinas eléctricas.

There is one industry that has been quietly recycling since before the start of the previous century. That’s right – over 100 years of recycling. What industry is that? It’s our industry – electrical equipment repair.

The Electrical Apparatus Service Association (EASA) stands as the ultimate team, empowering its members with extraordinary abilities. Through shared best practices, high standards and mutual support, EASA’s international community transforms its members into industry superheroes, ready to tackle any challenge.

EASA will soon be releasing a new Motor Stats feature for both the AC Motor Verification & Redesign and Motor Rewind Data software to assist with determining if the data is reasonable for the machine’s nameplate ratings and core size.

EASA pronto lanzará una nueva función de Estadísticas de motor para el software AC Motor Verification & Redesign y Motor Rewind Data para ayudar a determinar si los datos son razonables para las clasificaciones de placa de identificación y el tamaño del núcleo de la máquina.
