Their Request
The stator of the TDS-20000 synchronous motor which is used in an air compressor got out of order at NLMK production. Electrical malfunctions of the motor are always connected with the coil and could be the result of a coil break, a turn-to-turn short circuit, a coil fault to frame or a violation of the insulation quality of the winding wire. As a result, the electric motor overheats and burns out.
Our solution
After determining the coil malfunction, the specialists of REM&Coil started manufacturing a set of stator rods for the TDS-20000 engine. Also, the company manufactured some test coils which were sent to the customer for testing in the stator of their electric motor.
Structurally, each rod consists of two turns arranged in width. Each turn is made with a transposition of 540 degrees. The slot-embedded part of the insulated rod has dimensions of 32.9x66.8 mm.
The rod insulation system is made of electrical insulation and protective tapes produced by leading Russian enterprises.
The forming of the rods was carried out with the equipment especially designed for this kit. The total length of the shaped rod is more than 3200 mm, the length of the rectilinear part is 2200 mm.
During manufacturing, the quality department carried out 100% quality control at each technological stage. The final electrical tests included a test of frame insulation with constant and alternating voltage, a test of connection insulation, a test of coil insulation with pulsed voltage, measurement of the absorption coefficient, measurement of the tangent of the dielectric loss angle.
"Thanks to the Rem & Coil technologists we were able to repeat completely the manufacture coil of the electric motor, which allowed us to repair such a large engine in the conditions of our Electrical Repair Department. The engine was repaired and delivered to the Customer."
