The insulation system chosen for any rewind should be suitable for the application, the voltage class, and the winding process capability of the service center. In most cases, adherence to “equal to or better than” selection is a good practice.

When preparing to rewind random or form-wound status, sometimes there just doesn’t seem to be enough room in the stator slot for the desired conductor area and insulation quantities. This presentation looks at balancing stator copper losses against insulation reliability.

Tres de los problemas más comunes en los motores trifásicos por los que somos consultados son:
- “El motor toma mucha corriente en vacío”
- “La corriente en las tres líneas no está balanceada”
- “ El motor trabaja caliente”
Incluso si nunca te has enfrentado a uno de estos problemas, sigue leyendo porque es casi inevitable que lo hagas y querrás saber qué hacer al respecto.

Three of the most common three-phase motor problems we receive inquiries about are:
- “The motor is drawing high no-load current.”
- “The current of the three line leads is not balanced.”
- “The motor is running hot.”
Even if you have never faced one of these issues, read on because it is almost inevitable that you will, and you will want to know what to do about it.

How Using Clamps When Pulling Magnet Wire Helps Prevent Splayed Teeth
Article
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.
Cómo el usar discos de retención al tirar del alambre magneto previene doblar los dientes de las laminaciones
Article
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.
