(prHWY.com) November 5, 2012 - Bay City, MI -- Bay City, MI, 05 November 2012: If you have an equipment breakdown and need a quick and efficient repair, Repair Zone is at your services any time of the day. If you would like to learn about their repair process, they have documented a detailed remanufacture and repair process. This process requires that all major electrical and mechanical components of the servo motor are disassembled and independently tested. This rigorous process ensures that the repaired servo motors are in the best condition.

Discussing the repair process, a senior executive at Repair Zone said, "Meg testing is the first step in this long procedure. It is done to see if any moisture potentially grounded the motor. If that is the case, the motor is disassembled and the windings are thoroughly washed and baked. Thereafter, the motor is Meg tested again in order to check if the part is now performing as it should. If it does not, we continue through the testing process until the part works like new."

The second test is the mechanical tolerance check. Bearings, housing and end bells are checked for wear or damage. Bearing seats are examined for correct tolerance. The condition of the shaft extension is also verified. Any motor component that is worn, broken or out of spec is tested and fixed to the appropriate specifications. Thereafter, the technicians check all of the connectors, encoder covers, the release voltage and independent torque testing is done on all the all brake assemblies.

Each feedback device - encoder, hall sensor, resolver, tachometer - is checked in the in-house machining center to confirm that they are functioning as they should. The executive added, "We also do a Back EMF test that checks the magnetic strength of the rotor. Once that is done, the servo motor is moved to the winding department where we surge test the stator and determine the quality of the winding. The rewind the device if required and then it is dipped in epoxy resin and baked to set the finish."

All bearings are replaced with high grade shielded bearings for better performance and a long lasting life. All connectors, O-rings, seals and any other damaged part are replaced as well. The motor is reassembled and aligned to manufacture specs. With all of the necessary Allen Bradley repairs performed, the servo motor is run tested to simulate a machine. It is then buffed, painted and name-plated before being dispatched to the client's facility in custom foam packaging.
