Support

At EDMR we don't just repair motors and think nothing more of the customers. We like to build a relationship with our customers and try and improve the reliability of their motors. If we see a recurring problem we identify it and talk through the problem to see if we can locate the reason for a premature or repetitive failure. It is this level of support that major blue chip companies look for in their suppliers.

Reducing downtime is critical to our customers and we are here to help where we can. When our customers have an emergency we are able to offer an expedited repair service. Our extensive range of stock parts enables us to provide a fast turnaround without the costly delay in ordering parts from a supplier. More and more we are stocking complete service exchange motors and drives to cover these emergency breakdown situations. On occasions where we have to source parts from a third party we will keep you informed of the progress of the job.

Quality

Quality is at the core of EDMR. Established in 1986 it is a commitment to quality that has enabled us to remain the leaders in specialist motor repairs. Our ISO procedures are specifically written to cover the repair of electric motors and drives. Comprehensive work instructions are available for all manner of  motors and feedback devices which enables EDMR to provide a cost effective high quality service.

Pricing

Although we are able to offer a rough guide to standard overhauls the most accurate way of pricing your repair is to evaluate, inspect and test it. On receipt of a motor this is exactly what we do. After the engineer has completed a full investigation (typically 2 hours) the details of faults, if any are found, are passed onto the service manager who then provides a fully itemised quotation detailing the parts failed and the cost of the repair. In addition the quotation will indicate how long the repair will take given current stock availability.

Warranty - All shunt motors repaired at EDMR comes complete with 12 months warranty.
