News from Westin Drives

A customer brought in a non-standard motor from one of their machines. In this case, the motor was in very poor condition and a repair wasn’t feasible.
​
We used one of our stock WEG IE3 motors and modified it to suit their requirements – the shaft was turned down and a new keyway was cut and at the NDE, a socket used for locking the shaft was fitted. We got it back to the customer the very next day.

Here we have a motor and gearbox in for repair – the gearbox drives a feeder for an industrial biomass boiler. The bearings are worn but the main problem here is that the input pinion and spiral bevel gear have failed.

​The solution? New gears from Tramec, SKF bearings fitted, servicing, re-charging with oil, testing and painted – job done.

Here we have a pair of pump control panels for a valued customer in the water treatment industry. They're designed and commissioned to be stand alone or remotely controlled as part of a bigger system. During a challenging time for sourcing electronic goods, Invertek P2 inverters offer reliable variable speed, safe torque off and fast availability – what's not to like?
