Building new equipment or systems, or finding replacement parts and components for custom built equipment or even older systems is often a challenge. While there may be a range of single and three phase transformers on the market that are a close match for the specific application, they may not offer the voltage step up or step down, and the configuration required.
If this is the case, the OEM or repair service has a choice. They can either modify or reconfigure the design and requirements of the system, or they can choose to have a custom transformer engineered and manufactured. While there are costs involved in both options, choosing to work with experienced custom transformer manufacturers has definite advantages.
Exact Transformer Requirements
By selecting the option to work with custom transformer manufacturers, there is no need to reconfigure or redesign any elements in either the new product or when retrofitting an older system. Experienced transformer manufacturers offer engineering services to design and manufacturing the exact transformer for the requirements of the system.
This includes the specific locations and types of connectors used in the transformer to allow for the correct step up or step down necessary. The design of the transformer windings is critical for this aspect of the system. The custom manufacturer can also design the transformer based on the physical dimensions required to fit in the system, the current, operating mode, and the frequency necessary.
Quality Control
Choosing from established and top-rated custom transformer manufacturers ensures full quality control throughout the design and manufacturing process. These companies use a variety of quality control processes throughout the production of the transformers, and they also fully test the transformers before they are approved for shipping to customers.
Take a close look at the expertise, transformer types, and the reputation of the transformer manufacturer. Choosing a top company is an advantage when looking for a custom transformer for any type of application.
