#59: Checking the Health of Motors and Generators
Rotating electrical machines are critical for power generation and running critical processes in industrial applications. However, reliable performance can be compromised over time due to the stresses motors and generators are continuously subjected to when in operation. In this episode, we speak with David Hassmann, a project engineer at Baumüller Services – a company which specializes in the routine inspection, maintenance and repair of motors and generators. David talks about what causes machines to fail and describes the diagnostic tests that are performed to make reliable assessments about machine condition.
