Join us for a comprehensive webinar on Mechanical Aging of Rotating Windings, where we will examine how continuous and cyclic mechanical stresses impact rotor winding insulation systems. At normal operating speeds, radial centrifugal forces impose significant stress on insulation, bracing materials and winding connections, potentially leading to degradation and failure over time.

Key discussion points include:

• Causes of mechanical aging, including high continuous stresses and cyclic forces from frequent start-stop cycles.
• Failure mechanisms, such as insulation cracking, loosening of windings, conductor distortion and potential catastrophic failures where broken conductor pieces impact the stator winding.
• Preventative strategies, including proper bracing design, material selection, and maintenance practices to reduce wear and tear.

This webinar is essential for engineers, maintenance teams and reliability professionals seeking to understand and mitigate the effects of mechanical aging in rotating machines.
