  • Expert Guide: Testing Washing Machine Motors for Quality and Reliability: Welcome to our latest video, where we take you through the detailed process of testing washing machine motors using a specialized test rig. As experienced appliance engineers, we understand the importance of ensuring every motor is in top-notch condition, especially when it comes to secondhand components.
    In this video, you'll get an inside look at how we meticulously check each motor to verify that the carbon brushes are mature, the commutator is functioning correctly, and the bearings are in good condition. These tests are crucial for guaranteeing that our customers receive a high-quality, reliable motor for their washing machine.

    Problem with new carbon brush is that its wire is shorter than on the ones that were in a new washing machine. And I am talking about a Bosch original carbon brush. It means that you will have a lot of carbon still available but it will not work anymore because of short wire. About video: GREAT VIDEOS, I love watching them! Thank you for every video and I wish you all the best.

    • @paulcohen1555
      @paulcohen1555 6 месяцев назад +1

      The wire should be short enough to stop the brush before the metal end touches the commutator, but not too short to waste half of the carbon and lifetime!

      How can we make more money from selling motors and brushes?
      Genius sales manager:
      Let's make the motor brushes wires shorter!)

    Hi, going off subject for a second please, is it possible to replace a 240v fridge/freezer compressor set up with a 12v compressor set up..?I live on a boat and have to run my under counter fridge freezer via an inverter which drags my battery bank down every day and costs money in diesel to charge batteries up again, I cannot afford a new 12v fridge freezer as they can run up to £600! I’ve seen brand new compressors on the internet at reasonable prices but I’m not sure I have the skills to tap into the fridge gas side of things..any help would be appreciated 👍🏻

    What is the typical motor current in actual operation in a machine on washing and highest spinning speed?
    (If you already measured or can measure it)

    • @How-to-repair
      @How-to-repair  6 месяцев назад

      If you watch the video on my amperage metres, then you would be able to measure the amount of wattage or amperage being drawn at any point. Typically a normal washing machine pulls between 200 to 400 W I have not made a video on washing machines yet, but here is the one on tumble dryers and it shows you what the tumble dryer motor is pulling. These only cost £10-£15 and I have an essential tool ruclips.net/video/NjEa_KZGWaQ/видео.htmlsi=BSLVCzbBcxoxkiR5

    Why aren't you mechanically fixing the motor to the bench?
    It will be safer for you!

    • @How-to-repair
      @How-to-repair  6 месяцев назад +1

      Because I have a voltage controller, the motor does not start fast. If I did not have this. Yes I would be bolting it down to the bench. But thanks for noticing if anyone else is trying this i would recommend it, but I have been doing it for years.
