How a webinar works

All EASA private webinars are live events in which the audio and video are streamed to your computer over the Internet. Prior to the program, you will receive a web link to join the meeting. 

The presentation portion of the webinar will last about 45 minutes, followed by about 15 minutes of questions and answers.

Requirements

  • Internet connection
  • Computer with audio input (microphone) and audio output (speakers) appropriate for your size group
  • TV or projector/screen

The Zoom webinar service EASA uses will ask to install a small plugin. Your computer must be configured to allow this in order to have full functionality. Please check with your IT department or company's security policy prior to scheduling a private webinar.

Private Webinars

EASA's private webinars are an inexpensive way to bring an EASA engineer into your service center, place of business or group meeting without incurring travel expenses or lost production time.

We often hear the terms preventive maintenance (PM) and predictive maintenance (PdM) of electric motors, but far less often do we give consideration to the tasks associated with these methods of maintaining motor operation and extending operating service life. This article addresses some of the more common activities associated with PM and PdM, with the focus on three-phase squirrel cage motors.

Preventive maintenance:

  • Insulation resistance (IR) test
  • Polarization index (PI) test
  • Motor current signature analysis (MCSA)
  • Mechanical activities such as lubrication, lubricant level checks, and lubricant analysis
  • Visual inspection
  • Thermal scanning
  • Ultrasonic testing
  • Cleaning
  • Belt tensioning
  • Bolt tightness checks

Predictive maintenance activities:

  • Trending and assessing most activities associated with preventive maintenance
  • Vibration analysis
  • Checking and adjusting alignment
