SYNOPSIS: IPS Cleveland is one of many IPS North American Service Centers offering local, regional and national coverage, all backed by a single Quality Management System, Health Safety & Environmental program, Continuous Improvement culture and Customer Service that offers an Unmatched Customer Experience (UCE).

 

IPS Cleveland provides service for:

  • industrial AC & DC electric motors, generators and
  • mechanical power transmission equipment such as gearboxes, pumps, fans, compressors, shafts.

 

Electric motors are used in all areas of our everyday lives.  They can be found in automobiles, trains, factories, power plants, and even in your own home.  Each motor is designed for a specific purpose, such as running a fan, pump, or drive train.  IPS North American service centers handle all industrial AC & DC electric motor and generator repairs — everything from small, fractional HP, low-voltage units (<690V) to assets weighing 145 tons and rated to 15kV.

 

PRESENTATION: This presentation covers motor construction topics that include:

  1. understanding motor nameplate information,
  2. winding insulation systems,
  3. stator core manufacturing techniques,
  4. processing procedures.
  5. Q&A

 

The Speaker: Mr. David Hinchliffe P.E. is the Senior Electrical Engineer for IPS Cleveland since 2014.  David oversees electrical failure investigations, repair and testing.  He is also the Electrical Insulation Engineer for the development and maintenance of the IPS proprietary insulation systems.

From 2004 to 2014, David worked for Exelon Generation in progressively advancing roles at Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating plant.  Starting as an Electrical Component Specialist and advancing to System Manager.  He oversaw maintenance and quality issues of electrical motors based on predictive maintenance technologies, vibration monitoring, thermography, lube oil analysis, motor design analysis, protective device assessment and motor load effects. He also held the position of Electric Motor Corporate Subject Matter Expert and the Large Power Transformer Subject Matter Expert.
