This is amongst the best production techniques of Induction motors that I have ever seen. I noticed that when the motor was tested it was elevated from the table and that little sway proves the balancing, both electrically and mechanically was perfect. My congratulations.

It is always amazing to watch videos such as yours. I love all things mechanical and to see the level of knowledge, effort, and finances that exists behind this operation is truly amazing.

[@Crazcompart]

Good to know Baldor is still around...They make one workhorse of an industrial motor...Years ago, I once worked in a production machine shop that still had a few old engine and turret lathes for secondary operations that needed main drive motor replacement... "Get that whatever-it-is out of there, and put in a brand-new Baldor!" the boss would say...I never saw any down time after that in those machines, and I was there for fifteen years! Kudos on a dependable product...

[@ashfaqcivilengineer1229]

Extremely impressive and informative video. My gratitude to BALDOR management.

For years I worked with Baldor to reliable American made motors for the industrial gizmos I designed. I really appreciated their support and willingness to work with a modestly sized company.

I took a whole semester class about electric motors in university yet I am blown away by the way they wind the stator. I just kinda accepted it and never felt like investigating how that was done. Would have never imagined the coil was formed separately and then stuffed into the armature.

I always watch this video about once in a year, It works on me like some sort of SMR seeing those windings get pulled trough, and I always chuckle near the end because of that tiny fan being put on such a huge motor and then being guarded by that humongous fan cover, when the fan itself is like the size of a small jet pump 0.75HP motor fan lol

To answer your question Michael, it is not cool. I was a motor rewinder in the NAVY for several years and it is not as "cool" as you think it is. We didn't have some of machinery Baldor has and we didn't do our work in a stable platform. We also didn't have the luxury of doing the rewinding process on the stator only. We man-handled the entire motor at step of the way. This included determining the wiring configuration, removing the old damaged wiring, prepping the stator laminations, making and inserting the coils, dipping and baking of the windings.
