GMR Electric Motors Ltd. recently acquired the new PDMA MCEmax, which is the most
comprehensive and powerful electric motor predictive maintenance system available.
It is used for quality assurance applications, trend analysis and diagnostic evolutions.
The MCEmax is capable of both on-line and offline testing and provides detailed and
accurate reporting on the condition of the motor and power quality.

Dynamometer Load Test Center
We are proud to announce our latest equipment addition; a state of the art 1000 HP Dynamometer load
test facility. Motors are mounted on a 7 foot by 14 foot isolated precision pad and powered by our
in house power generation system that allows us to access infinitely variable voltage from 0 volts
to 14,400 volts. This Dynamometer can simulate actual motor variable load conditions and measures
horsepower and torque, as well as efficiency. From a sound proof control room we monitor all
temperatures, RTD's, and vibration and provide a complete and comprehensive printout. Read outs
include voltage, amperage, torque, horse power, efficiency, as well as bearing temperature and
winding temperature. This guarantees motor performance and maintained efficiency ratings. We have
also added a new DC Drive system for full load testing of DC motors.
Dynamics Research is a market leader in balancing technology. The computerized
model 610 takes all the guess work out of the balancing procedure making
it possible to balance in two planes in just a few runs. The Dynamics
Research instrumentation prints complete reports showing the exact unbalance
as received, the balancing speed, the operator, the job number and the
final balance attained. Model 610 can support weights from 50 to 15,000
Lbs with the capabilities to balance almost anything that comes at it.
This equipment ensures that precise, complete, accurate balancing every
time.
Vacuum Pressure Impregnation is a process that is a step
above the conventional vacuum system. VPI includes pressure in addition
to vacuum, thus assuring good penetration of the varnish in the coil.
The result is improved mechanical strength, electrical properties and
thermal performance. This means improved heat transfer by eliminating
air/gas pockets and makes it impossible for moisture or other contamination
to degrade the system. The solid void-free structure reduces the possibility
of internal corona damage on high-voltage machines. VPI minimizes
coil movement, slots are completely filled, and by the use of suitable
fibers laminated structures and bracing materials a solid reinforced end
winding structure is obtained. This ensures improved reliability and long
service life. The core wire is completely filled and sealed.
This eliminates problems due to loose cores and provides positive protection
against migration of moisture and other contamination through the core.
