Hi Paul, thanks for watching! We appreciate the service you provided from Brooklyn St in Portland all of these years! Enjoy your retirement, sir - we'll keep manufacturing quality motors for your/our customers.

I have bought, sold, and specified your motors, this was fun to watch. Always cool to see high qualty manufacturing still being done in the USA. Baldor has a reputation they can be proud of.
I work for Allmand llc in Holdrege and we manufacture large industrial light towers. We used these generators in our products from the late 90's up to the mid 2000's.
There must be a rebuild factor in the design for future service. I've seen videos of motor rebuilders, and they rewind and reassemble them. Complicated stuff. Great video. Well trained staff.
I rewound Baldor/Reliance motors on a carrier. When you pull one of those puppies out of the ventilation can the case would have so much rust because of the sea water corrosion. We would wire wheel the case and end bells and varnish them. These motors were tanks.
I took a whole semester class about electric motors in university yet I am blown away by the way they wind the stator. I just kinda accepted it and never felt like investigating how that was done. Would have never imagined the coil was formed separately and then stuffed into the armature.
I have a Baldor motor made right here in the U.S. It came with a Lortone lapidary combination unit. Now that I've seen this, I'll have that motor for the rest of my life. :D
Why such big motor has such small ventilator at the end at 9:37? Are you sure the worker didn't mishandled the wrong sized ventilator from a smaller motor? Thanks!
To answer your question Michael, it is not cool. I was a motor rewinder in the NAVY for several years and it is not as "cool" as you think it is. We didn't have some of machinery Baldor has and we didn't do our work in a stable platform. We also didn't have the luxury of doing the rewinding process on the stator only. We man-handled the entire motor at step of the way. This included determining the wiring configuration, removing the old damaged wiring, prepping the stator laminations, making and inserting the coils, dipping and baking of the windings.
I always watch this video about once in a year, It works on me like some sort of SMR seeing those windings get pulled trough, and I always chuckle near the end because of that tiny fan being put on such a huge motor and then being guarded by that humongous fan cover, when the fan itself is like the size of a small jet pump 0.75HP motor fan lol
Well done. This is an interesting video. A lot of information I learnt about how induction motor is created. That induction motor is really big and its look very good quality.
Thanks for watching videos. Another one largest Motor manufacturing company I did visited to Taiwan in 2009. Company name is TATUNG origin made by Taiwan. Which is no one brand in Taiwan also famous in the world. So you may can visit to that motor manufacturing company if you interestfill ?
Induction motor are almost indestructible. Also, very safe in explosive environment. Only drawback of induction motor is the huge reactive power they draw from supply to create the magnetic field. That is more prominent under low load conditions. As load increased, the ratio of reactive to active current becomes smaller and hence power factor improves. I worked with GE motors earlier.
Thanks for the insight. Worked for many years in manufacturing in different capacities. Always found that making things gave a person a sense of accomplishment for a day's work. Something you just don't get in other lines of work.
tengo un motor baldor de 25 hp hago todas esas pruebas, el bobinado se ve de fabrica, pero no logra alcanzar su velocidad de trabajo, visualmente se inspecciona el bobinado y se ve intacto, incluso de le solto la conexion y se le realizo toda nueva y no llega a su velocidad de trabajo. presumimos pueda ser un corto en la ranura que solo se presenta al intentar poner el motor en marcha, ¿esta podria ser la falla?
Very nice. Am still troubled by the idea of lamination stack welding. Given the efforts put into maintaining good insulation of lamination stacks in transformers built by us in the past.
Can you build 3 phase induction type traction motors for the 300-350 HP range? What would the cost of said motors be and what would the starting torque of said motors be? Maximum speed would be 2100 RPM

I don´t see the machining of the motor´s feet. Is this why sometimes we cannot reach pump and motor alignment and soft-foot verification? It wouldn´t be the first motor that that had its foot machined on site...
I do like seeing Baldor motors on equipment that I have to work on. They are well built motors the shafts are not off slightly like some of the Chinese motors. I really want a big Baldor buffing wheel.

I see Athens is running Doosan, the same brand as our ft.smith plant. If anyone here runs these machines, please tell me how they are working out for you. Do you have much problems with sizes jumping/dropping, excessive chatter, or out of roundness?
I also make these but then without any machine to help me, apart from making the coils. The motors we make aren't really the easiest to make, thats why we still wind the motors with hand from start till finish.
lucky to have 1.5 hp on target tile saw for 30 years it rarely gets a sweat on, of course good blades help that even so when i turn it on job gets done. Now going to set saw up to cut 60 inch tile baldor says bring it on
Peter R They knew what company put out the best, most reliable industrial electric motors in the world from the monsters down to a lil 1/2hp machine. Probably why they bought Baldor in the first place, & wanting to keep that going (despite the cost) is why their plants stayed 🇺🇸 instead of turning to 🇲🇽 or even worse 🇨🇳. I know this; When replacing motors I want a Baldor, not some import piece of 💩 that no one had ANY pride in their workmanship!

30+ years ago I was a young dumb kid working at this plant part-time under a college internship and was promoted to the motor testing section. One night I was dead on my feet and I forgot to anchor (or secure) the motor before I tested the engine. This huge motor leapt from the testing cradle and flipped up in the air and landed on the floor with a huge bang. My supervisor came over and was furious. I thought he was going to fire me straight away. They did eventually get rid of me because they terminated the internship program. Its funny. I still feel bad when I think about that motor smashing on the ground...
