Preventive Maintenance: The Secret to Longer Motor Life

When you think of motors in a factory, you probably imagine them working endlessly in the background, keeping everything moving smoothly. But what if one of those motors suddenly stopped working without warning? Production would stall, costs would rise, and your team would rush to fix the problem. This is exactly where predictive maintenance steps in, helping you prevent surprises and keep your motors running efficiently. (more…)
The consumer appliance industry is evolving fast, and the demand for energy-efficient, compact, and cost-effective solutions is higher than ever. From washing machines to kitchen mixers, low voltage motors play a crucial role in powering modern consumer applications. At Gyrodrive Machineries, our innovation journey led us to develop Externally Excited Synchronous Motors (EESMs) — a powerful alternative to conventional permanent magnet motors. (more…)
China’s recent clampdown on rare earth exports effective April 2025 - has sent shockwaves through India’s industrial sectors, particularly for industries reliant on permanent magnet motors. Rare earth magnets, like neodymium-based ones, are the backbone of high-efficiency motors in EVs, HVAC systems, and pumps. With China demanding stringent end-user certifications and India’s EV ambitions at stake, manufacturers are scrambling for alternatives. For industrial engineers and plant managers, this isn’t just a supply chain hiccup-it’s a wake-up call to rethink motor technology. (more…)
