Industrial Auger Breakdown Repairs & Electrical Fault Finding
High-viscosity materials and jammed flighting frequently cause auger drive motors to stall, shear drive pins, or burn out motor contactors. Lectro Power Systems delivers prompt on-site motor testing, torque-limiting overload installations, and control repairs across Western Australia.
Symptoms We Resolve
Common Industrial Auger Faults We Diagnose & Fix
Motor Stalling & Thermal Overload Trips
Diagnosing material bridging, undersized thermal relays, phase loss, and mechanical flighting resistance.Zero-Speed Switch Lockouts
Testing tail-shaft proximity sensors and underspeed relays that detect broken drive chains or sheared couplings.Direct-On-Line (DOL) Contactor Burnout
Replacing pitted starter contacts, burnt coils, and undersized circuit breakers damaged by high starting loads.Forward/Reverse Jam-Clearing Failures
Servicing reversing contactors, interlocked timers, and automated anti-jam PLC unblocking routines.Safety Hopper Grid Interlock Open-Circuits
Repairing heavy-duty safety microswitches, magnetic interlocks, and safety relay circuits on access grates.Variable Speed Drive Overcurrent Trips
Tuning VSD torque boost, setting aggressive acceleration ramps, and installing dynamic braking resistors.
