Ever wondered how a “high-efficiency” motor can start wasting energy and damaging bearings before it’s even been switched on? We did too. So we tested it. Using offline motor circuit analysis alongside online motor current signature analysis, we inspected brand-new IE4 motors still sitting in their crates. What we found changed the conversation completely. Critical impedance imbalance straight out of the box. One motor already showing early winding defects before it ever saw load. That’s the ...

Curious about where condition monitoring is headed and how it’s changing the way we approach maintenance? In this episode, we dive into the strategic decisions shaping our industry and explore how adapting to new technologies can elevate operations. Broadcasting from our brand-new podcast studio, we’ll talk about how spontaneous conversations often lead to our best ideas—and how systems like Acoem are driving efficiency in exciting ways. We’ll also discuss the increasing demand for asset reli...
