What is Electric Motor Testing, and Why is it Important?
Electric motor testing is an essential component in the predictive maintenance of electric motors that helps operations optimize the service life of their equipment while improving efficiency and reducing costs associated with unnecessary waste. Motors are essential parts of machine systems that must adhere to highly detailed standards and specifications, emphasizing the importance of their upkeep and maintenance.Routine maintenance practices allow operators to assess a motorโs health accurately. In contrast, extended gaps between inspections offer ample time for simple issues to progress into significantly more complex and costly problems. The following factors to consider when developing a maintenance schedule:
- Repair History
- Part Availability
- Effect on Daily Operation
- Technician Availability
