Repairs Division

Repairs Division

Motion Industrial Products specialise typically in the repair of Electric Motors, Industrial Pumps and Industrial Gearboxes.

Industrial Gearbox Refurbishment Plan:

  • Quick examination and assessment. We examine and provide a written report on the condition of Gearbox and work and parts required. (usually within 24hrs)
  • We can remanufacture Gears, Worms and Wheels and shafts as required. We utilise a well equipped workshop with all the necessary skill and expertise to repair or remanufacture parts to their original condition. (See our page on Machining for additional info)
  • We only fit quality bearings and seals. Only the best is good enough, SKF, FAG, NTN, RHP etc...
  • We ensure casings have been thoroughly cleaned. It is important all debris and dirt is removed and casing is repainted as specified by you, the customer.
  • We give 12 Months Guarantee on all Gearboxes that we completely refurbish. If refurbishment is not economically viable, we will offer a quotation for a new unit.

Machining

From either a sample, CAD drawing or even a Rough Sketch we are able to machine exactly what you require. We can even help to draw it or produce a CAD drawing for you.

Motion industrial Products can offer virtually any machining function such as Broaching, Deburring, Drilling, Gear Manufacture, Grinding, Heat Treatment, Horizontal Boring, Inspection, Milling, Plasma Cutting, Pressing, Shaving, Sawing, Slotting, Tool Cutting and Turning.

Utilising a fully equipped machine shop we are able to manufacture precision machined parts in either “one-offs”, small batches or through the use of a CNC machine we can produce large volumes. We also have an assembly facility to provide a complete service, from the manufacture of parts through to assembly of the finished item.

We specialise in general machining such as boring and keying, producing new shafts, Splined shafts, repairing worn shafts and housings as well as manufacturing and designing gear sets for industrial open gears and for Industrial Gearboxes. Producing spares in this way can typically be more cost effective and quicker than buying “off the shelf” particularly for imported or old obsolete boxes.

We can produce spares in all range of materials ranging from standard EN1 mild steels up to the more exotic alloy and nickel steels such as Hastelloy, Titanium and Duplex Stainlesses.

We can work closely with companies from the initial design concept through to production of the finished item, we are able to produce gearboxes for any application up to 12 tonnes plus all of their components.

Our up to date inspection equipment and procedures ensure control of materials, processes and parts delivered. We can provide traceability, supported by certificates of conformity, from material (mill certification) to finished parts.

Some Types of Bearings Supplied

Deep Groove Ball Bearings: These are versatile and are most commonly used. They are simple in design, robust in operation and easy to maintain, they are available in single or double row design and can be supplied in open, sealed or shielded arrangements. Due to their low frictional torque they are suitable for high speed applications.

Angular Contact Bearings: Single row angular contact ball bearings are self retaining units with solid inner and outer rings. Cages can be made of polyamide, sheet steel or brass. The inner & outer raceways are offset from each other along the bearing axis, therefore being able to accommodate angular loads.

Spindle Bearings: These are single row angular contact bearings, they can be supplied in open or sealed versions. Spindle bearings have restricted tolerences. They are suitable for extreme guidance accuracy and for high speeds. They are commonly found in use in high speed machine tools.

Self-Aligning Bearings: These are double row , self retaining units. They can be supplied with either a parallel bore or a tapered bore for use with tapered adaptor sleeves.

Cylindrical Roller Bearings: These bearings have high rigidity and high radial load carrying capabilities. They can be supplied as non-locating, semi-locating or locating bearings.

Taper Roller Bearings: These comprise solid inner and outer rings with tapered raceways and tapered rollers. They are not self retaining. They can support axial forces in one direction and high radial forces.

Spherical Roller Bearings: These are double row self retaining units with a concave raceway. They can be supplied with parallel bore or with a tapered bore for use with tapered adaptor sleeves. They are designed for very high load carrying.

Needle Roller Bearings: These have a high load carrying capacity, are suitable for high speeds and are easy to fit.

Self-Lube Bearing Units: The bearing itself is a deep groove ball bearing which can be re-lubricated and is fitted inside a mountable housing. These housings can be round, triangular or square shaped or even in the style of a hump backed bridge. They have mounting holes for ease of installation.

There are literally thousands of different types and sizes of bearings, each one unique in its own design with its own limiting tolerances. You are always best to consult us for independent help and advice.

Some facts…

Electric motors consume 64% of all non-domestic energy consumption
Total population of electric motors >10 million
3000 motors purchased everyday - most used on fans, pumps and compressors
£millions could be saved through careful management

How does a VSD save energy?

A VSD regulates the speed of the motor, and in turn the speed of the pump or fan, by controlling the energy that goes into the motor, rather than restricting the flow of a process running constantly at full speed. Running a motor at full speed while throttling the output is like driving a car with one foot on the accelerator and the other on the brake; a part of the produced output immediately goes to waste. A VSD can save over 60% of the energy as it controls the energy at source, only using as much as is necessary to run the motor with the required speed and torque - much in the same way as the accelerator in the car controls the engine revs.

In particular, VSDs can dramatically reduce energy consumption in fan and pump systems. The power required to run a centrifugal pump or a fan is proportional to the cube of the speed. This means that if 100% flow requires full power, 75% requires 0.753= 42% of full power, and 50% flow requires 0.53= 12.5% of the power. As a small reduction of the speed can make a big difference on the energy consumption, and as many fan and pump systems run at less than full capacity a lot of the time, a VSD can make huge savings compared to a motor driving an load under mechanical control.

A VSD can also make it possible to stop a motor completely when it is not required as re-starting with a VSD causes far less stress than starting direct-on-line - soft starting is an inherent feature of the VSD. Regulating the motor speed has the added benefit of easily accommodating capacity rises without extra investment, as speed increases of 5-20% is no problem with a VSD as long as there is enough spare capacity in the system.

Other advantages of Variable Speed Drive Control …
Lower starting current
Reduced mechanical stress
Flexibility of operation
Reduced noise levels
Reduced hardware requirements - starters, power factor correction, metering/monitoring, PI control, etc. no longer required

Pumps

Motion Industrial Products are able to offer a range of industrial pumps and spares including Air Operated Diaphragm pumps (AOD), Progressing Cavity pumps, Peristalic pumps, Centrifugal Pumps, Submersible Pumps, Rotary Lobe pumps as well as packed systems.

We supply all the leading brands in the pump industry such as Sandpiper, Wilden, Versamatic, ARO, Boyser, Ebora, Grundfoss, TT Pumps, CAT Pumps, Lowara, KSB, Apex etc...

We are also able to offer independent help and advice for new or problematic pumping solutions

Different types of pumps supplied:

Air Operated Diaphragm pumps (AOD): The air operated double diaphragm pump (AODD) is a double acting positive displacement pump. The pump displaces fluid from one of its two liquid chambers upon each stroke completion. AODD pumps are commonly found in dangerous environments where there is no electricity supply or where the situation is hazardous and sparking could lead to an explosion.

Motion Industrial Products stock a wide range of pumps and associated genuine spares for WILDEN, SANDPIPER, VERSAMATIC and ARO air operated double diaphragm pumps.

Peristalic Pumps: A rubber tube is squeezed along its length by rollers/shoes that push the fluid contained within. The pump incorporates a rotor with the rollers/shoes mounted on it which continually rotates, compressing and relaxing the tube. This action moves the fluid through the tube with a constant rate of displacement for each revolution of the rotor. This gentle pumping action doesn't cause any damage to the product. The fluid only comes in contact with the hose and not with any rotating parts, so the pump is suitable for abrasive and corrosive applications. The tube's ability to reform after squeezing produces a vacuum that draws fluid into the tube, so very viscous liquids can also be pumped without problems.

Motion Industrial Products are suppliers of the BOYSER range of peristaltic pumps. Furthermore Motion Industrial products can supply universal peristaltic hose and lubricant, offering a competitive alternative option to hose requirements for BREDEL, ROTHO, PCM DELASCO AND VERDER

Centrifugal Pumps: Centrifugal pumps rely on kinetic energy rather than mechanical means to move liquid. Liquid enters the pump at the centre of a rotating impeller and gains energy as it moves to the outer diameter of the impeller. Liquid is forced out of the pump by the energy it obtains from the rotating impeller.

Centrifugal pumps can transfer large volumes of liquid but efficiency and flow decreases rapidly as pressure and/or viscosity increases.

Submersible Pumps: A submersible pump is a pump that has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in the fluid to be pumped.

The advantage of this type of pump is that it can provide a significant lifting force as it does not rely on external air pressure to lift the fluid.

A system of mechanical seals are used to prevent the fluid being pumped entering the motor and causing a short circuit.

The pump can either be connected to a pipe, flexible hose or lowered down on guide rails or wires so that the pump sits on a “duck foot” coupling, thereby connecting it to the delivery pipework.

Rotary Lobe Pumps: Rotary Lobe pumps are used in a variety of diverse industries because they offer superb sanitary qualities, high efficiency, reliability, corrosion resistance, and good clean in place (CIP) and service in place (SIP) characteristics.

Packed Systems: Motion Industrial Products can supply fully packaged pump systems to include motors, geared motors, duty/standby transfer sets, bases, guards and pipe work.

We offer a pump repair service which can be undertaken either on or off site at very competitive labour rates. We also offer pump commissioning, installations and pipe work modifications.

Breakdown service is as always with Motion Industrial Products at the forefront of our business and you can rest assured that once you have given us a job, it will be supplied quickly and efficiently, minimising your crucial downtime.
