PdMA Opens State-of-the-art Training Center
PdMA proudly announces the opening of their new state-of-the-art, 1,000 square foot training center in Tampa, Florida. According to Pete Bechard, Vice President of Training and Technical Support, “Pdma Corporation’s new training facility demonstrates our commitment to our customers. The new training center has four EMAX testing stations, allowing students to perform online testing of both healthy and faulted AC induction motors. One EMAX station supports testing of AC and DC drives. These online work stations incorporate PdMA’s Motor Test Access Panels (MTAP) ensuring the safest working environment possible for our students. In addition, there are several specialty motors available for MCE testing to support the offline portion of our training courses. Student comfort was also addressed by adding a separate break area as well as a work station so they can keep in touch with their home office.”
The training center opened on March 3, 2009 with the AC & DC Motor Maintenance and Operation course taught by Richard Love, Richard Love Associates.

Ask the same question in a facility that uses such a motor and the answer is more likely to be, "If we get five years out of it, we'll be happy!" Why does this discrepancy exist? Why do motors die in infant mortality instead of living to the ripe old age for which they are designed and built? The answer has to do with the failure to optimize motor management and maintenance.
