When electric motors start suddenly, the strain placed on both electrical and mechanical systems can be significant.

Our latest blog explains how soft starters help protect industrial equipment by reducing inrush current, minimising mechanical shock, lowering maintenance costs, and improving overall reliability.

From pumps and conveyors to HVAC and water treatment systems, soft starters can make a major difference to equipment lifespan and operational performance.

Worn motor bearings? This is how we sort it.

We’ve put together a quick video showing the process of removing old bearings and fitting new ones on an electric motor.

It’s one of those jobs that seems simple, but doing it properly makes all the difference to performance and lifespan.

From using the right puller to installing the new bearing correctly, it’s all about getting the basics right and avoiding future failures.

🎥 Watch the video to see the full process in action.

If you’ve got a motor that’s starting to get noisy or run badly, chances are the bearings are on their way out.

Follow us for more real-world engineering content straight from the workshop.



If your electric motor is noisy, overheating, or showing signs of wear, worn bearings are often the culprit.In this video, we take you through the full proce...

We’ve recently completed a VSD retrofit on Storm Pump 2 at Anglian Water’s Stifford Corran Way site, replacing a faulty drive with a new ABB ACQ580.

The team handled the full process, from safe isolation and removal through to installation, programming, and commissioning, getting the pump back up and running with improved efficiency and control.

It’s a great example of how we support the water industry with practical, end-to-end solutions, keeping critical assets operational when it matters most.

What could have caused this?

We'll tell you. This is what happens when the front bearing of a motor fails, and the front end shield completely shatters, causing the windings to burn out.

Plenty of work ahead for the team to restore this one.
