Rewinding a Large Motor at KOFFLER
Ғылым және технология
bukaymedia.com This shows how a large motor is re-wound, serviced, and tested. The scale, complexity, teamwork, and know-how required by the people at the KOFFLER Electrical facilities in San Leandro, CA. is amazing! Everything, from making the wire coils to the Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VIP) process, is done at this one location. KOFFLER's website is at www.koffler.com
The motor in this video is used to power a pump that removes water from a submarine dry dock facility at Pearl Harbor. Another video at bukaymedia.com/koffler.htm documents how the large pump impeller powered by this motor is balanced.
This movie is a good example of how web videos efficiently communicate a company's unique capabilities to its customers and prospects. Can you imagine trying to tell this story in 5 minutes without a video?

I used to work on a submarine drydock in the UK. It was four sections of a much longer WWII battle ship dry dock. Each section had two alternators, neither of which were as large as the synchronous motor in the video. Very impressive facility and personnel at KOFFLER Electric.

Brings back memories of my apprenticeship days . Many hours goes into a build project like this . Solid bar windings building and insulation took over a month for a similar size stator . About 3months all up just for the stator rebuild of similar size .

Very nice video and the work and craftsmanship is great!
I'm jealous of the workers depicted in this video. They are skilled, and have the opportunity to work as part of a team in a technical field.
What a great trip down memory lane this is. I started my armature winder apprenticeship in Manchester UK in 1960. Worked on small motors to 500 MW sets, motor testing, through college, drawing office, senior electrical engineer and qualified teacher. Hard work but creative and a great start in life! Loved it. The world should have an annual Tesla day. Best wishes?
I work for a company that makes the coils that go into the motor always love seeing what happens after we get finished and send them off

How can we control run-out issue in vertical machines rotor. And slip ring run-out in horizontal machines.
Just love those 1st few turns on the balancer.... will it stay on the rollers I ask...

Nice video, I rewound my share of 2300 - 4160 volt stators, but the slip ring rotor was a very nice looking rewind. Of course we did more Mush / Random stators, just weren't that HUGE!!! LOL. My step dad worked at Vincent Electric in Oakland for 30 plus years Don Rader he was a Damn good winder. I retired 5-yrs ago, sold my business to a kid that I hired in 1979 and I still go in to visit and once in a while still stuff a cake job. I don't miss the knuckle busters.

@@DrunkenGuitarGuy I just your question, well in Portland Oregon the winders get paid a lot less. The range is from $17.50 -hr for beginner to $38.00 for an " OLD PRO " but the OLD guys always got plenty of OT. So they were really making $125K to $175K a year. In California where my step Dad worked I guessing back then he was in the $40.00 to $46.00 per hour range, Today they maybe $50.00 to $55.00 hr. The shop rate is $135.00 hr. so I'm guessing they make a little PROFIT!!! hahahahahaha.

Did they rebuild the bearings too?
Fantastic to see such skills, ask a kid what an armature winder is - clueless would be 1st guess.. Just loved the 1st run up on the balancing machine... 50/50 as to whether it'd come off the rollers. Been nice to see the finished motor work full belt emptying the dry dock some massive pump I imagine..

@@aculasabacca No, it is all about high electric field (has nothing to do with magnetic field). At sharp points, the electric field is so high it causes ionization of the air. Corona refers to crown, king's and queen's crown has lots of spikes and hence the name.

Music was way too loud in distracting a lot of these types of videos where they show things being built they don't play any music at all instead they amplify the sounds of the shop really helping you put yourself there
QUALITY JOB! +1M likes to the workers!
Nice job! I hope that i could join that company :)
The company I work for has made stator coils for y’all before!!!!
Will that fit in my Nissan Leaf? Seriously though that looks like crazy work. Need to always be on the ball since if you mess up it throws off the whole motor and you have to start over.
Question: Is working a few years in a coil shop making stator coils enough experience to help get your foot in the door at a winding shop like this?
Awsome work gents!!
