IPS single-source capabilities include service, repair, engineering, remanufacturing, and distribution for DC motors. Our North American service centers provide regional support for metals, steel, paper mills, and forestry product plants.
We work to improve reliability and performance in DC motors, which typically run beyond their design capacity. IPS engineers and technicians use these motors, whether new or legacy, as a starting point to engineer for the application.
We improve on 20th century design and materials, then leverage our scale and North American resources to deliver fleet-level upgrades.
IPS specializes in the service and repair of large DC armatures and field frames. We recondition and rewind large DC motors, for significant improvements in dielectric and thermal performance.
We also diagnose and resolve ground issues, remove carbon buildup on brushes, and remove surface contaminants, such as pickling and acid damage.
IPS provides authorized warranty repair for DC motors, plus replacement parts.
Once we’ve identified failure modes in operation, we can determine the application’s specific requirements and engineer improvements. IPS technicians build custom-engineered DC motors, using higher quality materials and holding tighter tolerances.
IPS remanufactures and rewinds small DC motors for elevators up to extra-large motors weighing 245,000 lbs. Our legacy agreements with ABB Reliance give us access to DC motor prints — we also reverse engineer and remanufacture without drawings.
IPS is a master distributor with pricing agreements with the major OEMs. We maintain inventories in strategic warehousing across North America, for fast shipping and delivery.
Our network of used equipment distributors offers additional options if you need DC motors with a short lead time. In addition to sourcing, we provide drop-in replacement, installation, and commissioning.
We recommend this for electric motors & generators, rotating equipment, and power distribution equipment when it doesn’t work in the application.
Plans with documentation of tests and results, and recommendations. We can coordinate comprehensive testing for completion during planned outages.
Rewinds to mitigate electrical, thermal, mechanical, and environmental stress on your stators, customized to increase motor efficiency or uprate horsepower.
