AC DC motor repair South Texas

When your critical electric motor or generator fails, every minute of downtime costs your business. At San Antonio Armature Works, we specialize in the complete repair and remanufacture of AC & DC electric motors and generators for customers throughout South Texas. Our EASA AR100 compliant repair shop is equipped with the latest technology to diagnose and fix even the most complex motor issues.

Our comprehensive motor repair process begins with thorough testing using advanced equipment like the Baker Winding Analyzer to identify core losses, winding faults, and other failure points. For motors requiring rewinding, our skilled technicians perform precision work to restore your equipment to like-new condition. We then utilize Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI) processing—a critical step that helps prevent the primary causes of motor and generator failure by thoroughly sealing windings against moisture and contaminants.

Whether you need emergency repair for a failed production motor or scheduled maintenance for your generator fleet, our team provides 24/7 service with the expertise gained from nearly a century in business. As an authorized factory service center for all major brands, we deliver manufacturer-quality repairs at competitive prices. Trust the fourth-generation family business that has kept South Texas industries running since 1922.

Unbalanced rotating equipment leads to premature bearing failure, excessive vibration, and costly downtime. Our dynamic balancing services ensure your shafts and rotors operate smoothly and efficiently, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs. We handle dynamic balancing of components up to 10,000 pounds with precision accuracy for customers across South Texas.

Using state-of-the-art balancing equipment in our full-service machine shop, our experienced technicians can balance everything from small pump impellers to large industrial motor rotors. The process begins with a thorough inspection and measurement of vibration levels, followed by precise weight placement or removal to achieve optimal balance. Proper balancing reduces stress on bearings, seals, and foundations while improving overall system reliability.

This service is essential for industries relying on pumps, compressors, fans, turbines, and other rotating machinery. Whether you need in-shop balancing or field balancing services, our team brings the equipment and expertise directly to your facility. We also offer laser shaft alignment services to ensure your coupled equipment operates with perfect alignment, further preventing premature wear and energy waste. For businesses in South Texas seeking to maximize equipment uptime and minimize vibration-related issues, our balancing services provide a critical reliability solution.

Compressor failures can bring entire production lines to a halt, resulting in significant financial losses.
