Repairing a Siemens 1FT6044 engine with oil in the block requires accurate diagnosis and specialist intervention. At GDM we have received a unit with this problem and we carry out a detailed process to restore it to optimum performance. From the initial tests to the final verification, each step is key to ensuring correct operation.

Initial test on a Siemens motor: identifying the problem.

The process begins with a series of tests to determine the condition of the engine and detect any faults. These include

  • Winding test to assess continuity and resistance.
  • Insulation test to check for electrical leakage.
  • Encoder test to ensure feedback accuracy.
  • Mechanical parts test to check for wear and possible misalignment.
  • Torque test to check motor efficiency.
  • Magnetism test to detect permanent magnet failure.
  • Data logging to record key parameters.
  • Inspection of covers to identify possible leaks.

Once the results are obtained, the best repair strategy is determined.

Siemens 1FT6044 motor repair process.

Once the diagnosis is complete, the necessary actions are taken to restore the engine:

  • Replacement of bearings to eliminate unwanted noise and friction.
  • Encoder replacement in the event of inaccurate readings or signal failure.
  • Replacement of the oil seal to prevent further oil leakage.
  • Modification of the front cover to ensure a perfect fit of the oil seal.
  • Insulation repair, winding flushing and oven drying to restore the electrical integrity of the motor.

These steps ensure that the equipment is returned to full working order with maximum efficiency.

 

Final engine testing and finishing.

Once the repair is complete, the Siemens 1FT6044 engine is subjected to a new series of tests on the controlcheck department’s test benches. These tests confirm the quality of the repair and ensure optimum performance.

To complete the process, the engine is thoroughly cleaned, sanded and painted to ensure a professional finish. This not only restores the engine to working order, but also gives it a new look.
