A Steinert drum magnet recently arrived at our works for repair, Upon inspection it was found that the drum would not rotate due to bearing failure.Once the drum was dismantled it was clear that the coils had also been damaged due to the drum skin dropping down when the bearings failed. The main coil on this drum magnet needed rewinding in addition to replacement of the failed bearings, plus the seals and a new duplex drive sprocket. To finish the the job, the dmgnet drum was aslo completely cleaned, all parts inspected and repainted in order to bring it to an “as new” standard.
