When a Motoman servo motor fails, the impact can be felt throughout your entire operation. Unplanned downtime, reduced accuracy, and lost productivity can quickly add up. At Servotech, we specialize in comprehensive Motoman servo motor repair services, providing expert diagnostics, precision repairs, and complete refurbishment solutions designed to restore your motor to peak operating condition.

Motoman AC Servo Motor Repair

Every Motoman AC servo motor that arrives at our facility undergoes a thorough evaluation performed by experienced technicians. Our goal is to identify not only the immediate cause of failure but also any underlying issues that could affect long-term performance. Each motor is completely inspected, with careful attention given to bearings, windings, feedback devices, connectors, shafts, housings, and other critical mechanical and electrical components.

Motoman servo systems are commonly found in robotics, automated manufacturing equipment, CNC machinery, and motion control applications where precision and reliability are essential. Because of these demanding environments, our AC servo motor repair process focuses on restoring factory-level performance and ensuring consistent operation once the motor is returned to service.

After repairs are completed, each motor undergoes comprehensive testing using factory-compatible equipment whenever possible. This allows us to verify encoder feedback, motor performance, insulation integrity, and overall functionality before shipment. Our commitment to detailed testing helps ensure your repaired Motoman servo motor performs as expected when reinstalled in your equipment.

Motoman DC Servo Motor Repair

Each Motoman DC servo motor that enters our shop receives a complete evaluation to determine the root cause of failure. Our technicians thoroughly inspect all electrical and mechanical components, ensuring that worn or damaged parts are identified and corrected. Rather than simply replacing failed components, we focus on restoring the motor as a complete system.

Brushed DC servo motors require specialized attention due to the natural wear of carbon brushes and commutators. Over time, carbon dust can accumulate throughout the motor, affecting performance and reliability. During our DC servo motor repair process, motors are fully disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt as needed. Worn brushes, bearings, seals, and other critical components are replaced to help extend the life of the motor.

Many older Motoman DC servo motors remain in service today, despite replacement parts becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Servotech maintains an extensive inventory of replacement components and utilizes in-house machining, winding, and fabrication capabilities to address obsolete or hard-to-find parts. When necessary, our team can reverse engineer components to keep legacy equipment operating reliably.

Whether repairing modern AC servo motors or legacy DC servo motors, Servotech is committed to delivering dependable Motoman servo motor repair solutions that minimize downtime and maximize equipment life.

In addition to Motoman servo motor repair services, Servotech refurbishes servo and spindle motors from over 100 manufacturers. Click to view all brands we service.
