What causes excessive brushwear ac motor

[Anguz]

any play in the bearings ??
did brushes on a grinder once.... when new set was in realised the rear bearing was gone.... rattled about like a good un

We had what I think was a Indesit for about 25 years maybe more
She had little bit of rust pitting out the paint so my mother decided to replace it.
We then replace them one every 4 years.
They mostly had the main bearing fail destroying everything, on one electronic fail and so on.
Oh good old electromechanical programmers

After this I collected the brushes, hope they last few more years since they cost 45 €! (original Siemens)

Runout must have been ok I think?
Bearings seem ok and I didn't shape the brushes.
Stuck brush seems most likely.
Anyone use such a pump for a partswasher?

When we first bought a house money was very tight, I managed to cut a set of Forklift truck motor brushes down to fit the washing machine as they were free.

i used to nick washing machine carbon brushes from work and saw and file them down for powertools

Problem with trying to use a drain pump is they are a very basic impeller pump and so give very little if any "pressure" and are very poor at lifting fluid to any hight.

she can set it off via the phone app.

I get apps for your heating, doorbells etc but the wifi washing machines have always baffled me because you have to put your clothes in and close the door. Most of them have had a 'ready in' function for years, put your washing in, set it to be ready in X amount of time.

You have to fill a washing machine and close the door so the wifi app starting it seems completely pointless if you can set it to be ready when you want it to when loading it anyway.

Maybe I'm missing something though.

Does it message you to say it has just flooded the house?

4 years is not bad if it's used daily.

^Exactly.

only ever buy cheap washing machine lasts about 6 years, when it does wrong “recycle” it, buy new.

Have used them as suds/coolant pumps on both lathes and a milling machine. Being an impellor pump it needs to sit at or below the tank.

Don't know if you've ever watched it, but that made me think of the film "Jexi". AI gone wrong.
