The objective of optimized shaft alignment is to increase the operating life span of rotating machinery. To achieve this goal, components that are the most likely to fail must be made to operate ...

A common misconception is that vibration analysis will always tell you when there’s an alignment problem with a motor installation. Although vibration analysis is essential to a good motor maintenance ...

Most motor bolt bound issues I see today are from pipe strain. The pipe has moved over time and reinstalling the pump leaves the pump centerline off-center to the base centerline. The pump should be ...

When enabling a motor for the first time after powering the board, an alignment calibration is automatically started to find the offset between encoder and rotor. This is needed for accurate field ...

Abstract: Recently, high performance anisotropic NdFeB bonded magnets, named MAGFINE, were investigated for small motors used in automobiles. This paper discusses the success in developing a new ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a method to extract and compensate for the angular error of a motor position sensor by performing forced alignment to mitigate torque ...
