ELECTRIC MOTORS

DC MOTORS

While most electric motor manufacturers and electric motor repair facilities are moving away from DC motors, Flanders Electric remains a specialist in this time proven technology. DC machines continue to power the machinery in much of heavy industry. In massive metal rolling mills, huge surface mining excavators, underground mine hoists, and many other industrial applications, DC remains the workhorse of production and will continue to perform this duty for years to come.

Expertise with DC machines is becoming more and more rare in today’s world. Electrical engineering programs at most universities acknowledge DC motors only as part of electrical history. Many of the experienced maintenance personnel with practical, "real life" knowledge are retiring or changing industries. Flanders Electric remains the standout as a provider of proven solutions for DC motor applications.

With years of experience in the toughest DC applications, Flanders has taken the knowledge gleaned from dragline & shovel apparatus to the largest reversing mill motor applications and applied this knowledge to the development of materials & procedures to provide the optimum reliability available anywhere in a DC motor.

This depth of DC motor repair experience and the systematic identification of weak points in a DC machine has evolved into revolutionary upgrade and manufacturing processes that provide previously unknown reliability in DC motor performance.

New DC machine designs by Flanders Electric are reviewed by experienced repair and field service personnel to ensure reliability and ease of maintenance. This vast experience with DC machines is built into every new or repaired DC motor or DC generator from Flanders Electric. The power to perform is evident in every Flanders Electric DC machine.
