Reads Electric is a full service motor repair centre specialising in the electro-mechanical repairing, re-building, rewinding of traction motors and generators used in mining and the marine industry. We combine cutting edge technology with a high level of responsiveness to ensure that every job meets or exceeds OEM specifications.<\/p>\n
Our traction motor repair section includes:<\/p>\n
We rewind and repair all types of static and rotating electrical equipment to 3000 KW or 25 tonne. All insulation classes are available.<\/p>\n
Reads Electric only use materials of the highest standard which are formed into coils by extremely skilled and experienced industry specialists. The result is a coil providing guaranteed customer satisfaction. We manufacture coils up to and including 11 000 volts.<\/p>\n
All types of electrical equipment can be removed and fitted by our expert technicians.<\/p>\n
We offer a full line of field and shop dynamic balancing utilising the IRD models 230 and 345 balancing equipment. The workshop balancing machine can accommodate equipment up to 2300kg. All balancing is performed to national and international standards.<\/p>\n
Provides an economical option to the complete re-manufacture of worn components. Only the best quality powders and wires are used to provide a repaired component. All work is guaranteed.<\/p>\n
We are able to perform the vast majority of repairs in-house, including:<\/p>\n
A pump test will determine the overall efficiency of your pumping plant, indicating the possible need for adjustments or repairs. It will also determine the cost of pumping a given volume of water at the tested conditions, enabling you to make informed decisions regarding adjustments or repairs. We have the facilities to load test pumps up to 60 Hz.<\/p>\n
This test is applied to all equipment repaired. It confirms to us and to the customer that the bearings are in first class condition on dispatch. This is accomplished with overall vibration and envelope measurements. Problems with bearings occur when there is a microscopic crack or flaw, or when there is a breakdown in lubrication which leads to metal on metal interaction. Our equipment is designed to detect flaws or a lack of lubrication in bearings at an early stage by measuring the high-frequency impacts through acceleration envelope methods.<\/p>\n
We provide a full line of on-site and shop vibration analysis utilising IRD model 306M equipment.<\/p>\n
High voltage surge comparison testing is the most effective test available to check the quality of electrical windings. All windings repaired at Reads Electric undergo such testing to ensure our high standards are maintained.<\/p>\n
A full core loss test should always be performed before equipment is rewound. Damaged lamination insulation can severely shorten the repair life. At Reads Electric all lamination stacks undergo this test.<\/p>\n
This testing can be performed on-site, on-board or in our workshop. All equipment is calibrated and traceable to a national standard.<\/p>\n
We manufacture and repair transformers up to 11 000 volts and a maximum repairable size of 25 tonnes.<\/p>\n
Reads Electric performs abrasive cleaning and represervation on all parts as required. The build up of scale on some parts can cause electrical rotating equipment to overheat. Routine cleaning can save large expense and lost time down the track.<\/p>\n
