Nidec Motor Corporation Introduces Virtual Program for Motor Testing at Mena Facility
ST. LOUIS — Nidec Motor Corp. (NMC) has launched a virtual test service that enables customers to remotely witness and monitor motor testing that is being done at NMC’s Mena, Arkansas manufacturing facility.
The service, which can eliminate the need for an on-site inspection, provides original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and end users with a safe, convenient, and economical way to validate that a product is being manufactured to specifications, view performance results, and receive additional technical support.
The virtual test service offerings are customized to meet the specific needs of NMC customers. Customers can request the short commercial test (SCT), IEEE 841, complete initial test (CIT), reed critical frequency (RCF), vibration, and sound testing.
When customers choose to participate in the program, they receive online, secure access to virtual testing that uses multiple cameras capturing Nidec’s highly skilled operators as they perform each test sequence. These customers also see the data output and will be able to direct technical questions to Nidec’s engineering team members for additional support.
