Motor control systems are used in critical processes throughout manufacturing plants. Equipment failure can result in high financial losses both from potential motor, or parts, replacement and from equipment downtime for the system the motor powers.
Motors are used everywhere in industrial environments, and they are becoming increasingly complex and technical, sometimes making it a challenge to keep them running at peak performance. It’s important to remember that the causes of motor and drive issues are not confined to a single domain of expertise – both mechanical and electrical issues can lead to motor failure – and being armed with the right knowledge can mean the difference between costly downtime and improved asset uptime.
