Lenze AC Tech Price Increase

/in /by

Lenze AC Tech announced a price increase a couple weeks ago for nearly all of their drive and servo products except for the SMVector drive lines and newer automation product lines. The Lenze AC Tech price increase will go into effect on May 1, 2012.

Lenze AC Tech stated that the price increase is due to market conditions and significant increases in energy and product material costs (raw materials). We at Precision Electric do not believe the Lenze AC Tech price increase will affect drive sales much, but it may give existing MC Series drive users motivation to convert to Lenze AC Tech SMVector drive line.

The Lenze AC Tech price increase will certainly affect users with existing AC Tech equipment who are not interested in converting over to Lenze AC Tech SMVector drives, or other newer product lines unaffected by the Lenze AC Tech price increase. There are literally thousands of applications out there using the MC Series drives, and in my opinion these applications should be converted over to the Lenze AC Tech SMVector drive line.

Converting the AC Tech MC Series over to Lenze AC Tech SMVector is logical because of the Lenze AC Tech price increase, and for the Lenze AC Tech SMVector drive features. The Lenze AC Tech SMVector is all around a better product than the AC Tech MC Series, and in nearly every horsepower rating, it is all less expensive than the AC Tech MC Series drive.

The Lenze AC Tech price increase will be effective on May 1, 2012 and all quotes Precision Electric has made prior to May 1, 2012 will be adjusted accordingly if need be. To discuss technical data with regard to converting over AC Tech MC Series drives to the Lenze AC Tech SMVector drive, contact Precision Electric today.

Preventing Electrical Bearing Damage Caused by VFD’s

/in , , /by

 

FACT: Every motor controlled by a variable frequency drive (VFD) should have bearing protection.

WHY?: Variable frequency drives induce voltage to the electric motor’s shaft that discharges through the bearings. This voltage can cause severe pitting, excessive bearing noise and eventually bearing failure (see picture below).

IT GETS WORSE: Not only the motor’s bearings are at risk but coupled equipment like gear boxes, encoders, brake motors, etc. are also at risk of damage. Installing a bearing protection ring on your electric motor will channel that shaft voltage away from your bearings and safely into ground.

 

Electric Motor Bearing Failure

Pitting in a electric motor’s bearing cause by shaft voltage induced by a variable frequency drive

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

REMEMBER: Insulating bearing housings alone does not prevent shaft current from discharging through the electric motor’s bearings and coupled equipment.

SOLUTION: Precision Electric can help you protect your bearings. Its cheaper than you think and it stops you from paying frequent electric motor repair cost.  For more information on pricing on bearing damage protection and general purpose and inverter duty electric motors,

Please call toll free: 877-625-2402.

We will do everything we can to minimize your down time and maximize your productivity.

DC Electric Motor Repair

/in /by

Precision Electric separates itself from other DC electric motor repair facilities in many ways. Most DC electric motor repair facilities use the assembly line method which isn’t ideal because when many people work on the same DC electric motor, and the chance of human error drastically increases.

Precision Electric designates each DC electric motor repair to a specific mechanic, so the mechanic who disassembles the DC electric motor is the same mechanic who assembles and final tests the DC electric motor.

When Precision Electric facilitates a DC electric motor repair, an initial test procedure is performed to determine cause of failure and other problems which may exist, including armature and field frame rewinds.

Precision Electric performs rewinds on-site and is known to work around the clock on emergency jobs until DC electric motors are repaired and ready to be installed back into production.

DC electric motor repair introduces additional complexities into the repair process. The addition of a commutator with brushes, and rotating armature coils subjected to centrifugal force, which aren’t factors involved in typical AC electric motor repair.

The following procedures and tests are performed at Precision Electric to guarantee a quality DC electric motor repair.

Conductive carbon dust left by worn brushes is cleaned from the armature; then each commutator is checked for grounds and bar-to-bar shorts with detailed electrical testing.

Coils are manufactured in-house to assure proper fit. This eliminates constant bending and shaping during installation which can damage coil insulation. Proper banding is critical in DC repair. This ensures that the winding is held in position during high-speed operation.

Field coils are checked using voltage drop testing. Bad fields and inter-poles are rewound in our shop on custom forms. TIG welding is available to eliminate soldered joints where design dictates.

All commutators are turned, undercut, and chamfered to provide the best possible surface for brush contact. For corrosive or other severe duty environments, commutator platinum plating is available to extend wear life (pickle-duty). Neutral setting adjustments are made during final machine testing to ensure proper operation.

All DC electric motor repair performed by Precision Electric is backed by a 12-month in service warranty. The Precision Electric in service warranty provides customers with a peace of mind knowing that their spare DC motors will be warrantied regardless of how long their spare equipment is on standby.

There has always been three primary issues with servo motor and drive replacement- Servo motors and drive combinations are frequently proprietary and difficult to replace. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) retire older models of servo motor and drive equipment. The cost of replacement servo motor and drive combinations are often extremely high.

The demand of servo motor and drive repair is created by the Original Equipment Manufacturers’ ever-changing technological advancements. Most manufacturing facilities, however, often seek out servo motor and drive repair to cut down the cost associated with replacing obsolete equipment with new equipment.

The components Original Equipment Manufacturers use to build servo motor and drive combinations are often cheaply made. During a servo motor and drive repair, Precision Electric replaces these parts with quality parts that exceed the quality control of the Original Equipment Manufacturer.

What does this mean? It means that the servo motor and drive repair you receive back from Precision Electric is likely in better quality than the original equipment itself.

Using proprietary software, Precision Electric can re-align the servo motor as necessary to ensure the rewinding of the motor retains full accuracy. Precision Electric has nearly 20 years experience with servo motor and drive repair, and can also find obsolete components and parts for the toughest servo motor and drive repairs.
