Baldor Adds Really Cool BE$T iPhone App

Baldor Adds Really Cool BE$T iPhone App
There are a million and one iPhone apps out there but this one by Baldor Electric Company is way cool. Those smart cookies at Baldor have converted their BE$T desktop program for calculating and comparing motor efficiencies to an Apple iphone app.

By calculating a motor’s annual electricity usage based on its nominal efficiency and comparing it to the annual electricity usage of Baldor’s Standard-E and Super-E premium efficiency motors, it can then recommend, by catalog number, the appropriate Baldor motor for the application as well as information on the payback period for replacing the existing motor.

Even better, it will also calculate useful information such as the yearly electrical savings when a variable speed drive is used vs. a constant speed motor.

But now you can have that service anywhere by downloading the Baldor BE$T app from itunes. This version is also a smaller and easier to use package. Sounds pretty cool to me.

Servo Motor Repairs: Bearings Number 1 Cause of Servo Motor Failure

Servo Motor Repairs: Bearings Number 1 Cause of Servo Motor Failure
If your servo motor is not working properly, chances are good that the bearings are the main problem.

They may have reached the end of their useful life, especially if they are factory sealed bearings that cannot be lubricated.

Or, if you have have open bearings, they may have become contaminated, especially if your work environment is not very clean. Lubrication of the bearings, if possible, is a good way to get the most life out of your servo motor.

Regularly adding new grease will push out the old grease and any dirt that may have worked its way into the bearing housing. It is important that the old grease have a way to move out so look for a pressure relief mechanism first before adding new grease. Not checking first could result in overheating due to too much lubrication.

If you are still having problems with your servo motor, or you are just too busy to fiddle with it, send it to an expert servo motor repair firm. Their expert team can diagnose the problem, repair it, and rehab your entire unit quickly. The best firms will offer a warranty on the repair as well. Some of these firms provide only servo motor repair while other equally excellent firms offer comprehensive industrial electronic repair services. blog info
