Information
Rewinding or redressing is the process of replacing or repairing burnt windings or coils on an electric motor unit. The importance of rewinding the burned motor unit on the reel includes:
- Repairing Damage: In the event of a fire in the motor windings, rewinding can help repair the damage incurred. By replacing the burnt windings, the motor can be restored to good operational condition.
- Maintaining Asset Value: Electric motors are valuable assets in industrial operations. By rewinding, a burned-out motor can be repaired and kept functioning properly. This helps maintain asset value and prevents costly replacement of new motors.
- Cost Saving: Rewinding is usually more economical than replacing the entire motor with a new one. By rewinding, you only need to replace burnt rolls and make repairs to damaged parts, so as to save significant costs.
- Minimizes Downtime: When the motor catches fire, industrial operations can be disrupted because the motor cannot function. By rewinding, recovery time and downtime can be minimized. Once rewinding is complete, the motor can be re-installed and reused with shorter downtime.
- Maintaining Production Continuity: Electric motors are often an important part of the production process. By rewinding, the motor can be repaired and reused immediately, ensuring continuity of production is maintained without too much disruption.
It is important to involve technicians who are experienced in performing rewinding on burned motor units. They can perform the necessary evaluations and repairs to ensure the motor is functioning safely and efficiently once the rewinding is complete.
