High-frequency vibration analysis of a 40HP-1200 rpm electric motor revealed rotor bar failures. Damage to the plates was also observed.
Failure analysis in a 40HP-1200 rpm electric motor. - FPB failure
An electric motor with high noise at very high frequency was intervened. The very high frequency vibration spectra were analyzed; the frequency of failures of electric rotor bars was observed.
The plates were checked and the following damage was found shown in the images.
