Armature Inspection/Balancing Services

 

Looking to build a VHORS SS or Fray Race Car.  You send me your favorite Aurora Factory Stock Armatures and I will perform the following services for you to maximize performance out of your motor:

  • Visual Inspection:  I visually inspect the armature for any obvious flaws that would impede it's performance.

  • Electrical Checks:  Measure for uniform resistance (ohms) across all armature poles and test for electrical shorts.

  • Shaft Inspection/Polishing:  Measure the shaft for straightness, adjust if necessary, and polish it.

  • Commutator Plate Truing:  Measure the commutator plate for perpendicularity (run-out) to the shaft, adjust if necessary, and polish it.

  • Stack Truing:  True the pole faces (stacks) for concentricity to the shaft, and even air gaps between magnets. (Note: this is done on a lathe for precision turning, not a Dremel Tool.)

  • Epoxy Balancing:  Balance the armature with Epoxy.

NOTE: I do not balance by removing material from the pole faces.  I epoxy balance only.
