Professional AC Motor Engineering Tools

Motor winding design, done right.

Six professional-grade engineering calculators: winding design, wire sizing, slot analysis, Newton-Raphson equivalent circuit extraction, T-circuit performance analysis, and rotor eccentricity testing. With 1,285 reference motors and full calculation history.

Run it on your motor

Which of these is you?

The tool is the same. Where you should start is not.

You rewind for a living

Look a machine up before you start. 1,285 motors with the slot count, coil pitch, turns and wire already recorded, so you are checking your work, not starting from a blank page.

Start with the catalogue

You have one motor on the bench

Measure the bore, count the slots, read the plate. You get the winding factors, the slot-by-slot distribution and a balance check for that machine.

Work through one motor

You are learning this

Every result shows the working: why a shortened span chords the winding, what thin back iron does to the current it draws. The numbers arrive with their reasons.

Everything a rewind needs

Each calculator is a full sheet: inputs, results, and the winding drawn out slot by slot.

Basic Winding

Compute synchronous speed, winding factors (Kd, Kp, Kw), flux density, turns per coil, and wire CMA.

Advanced Winding

Add slot geometry (width, depth, insulation) for slot fill factor analysis and packing efficiency.

Wire Selection

Select optimal AWG or metric wire based on current and desired current density with a ranked comparison table.

NR Parameters

Extract R1, X1, R2, X2, Xm, and Rm from nameplate and no-load data using Newton-Raphson iteration. Generates torque-speed curves and performance at multiple load points.

Equivalent Circuit

Analyse the T-equivalent circuit at 50%, 75%, and 100% load. Two methods: Vectorial and IEEE 112-B. Full torque-speed curve and phasor diagram included.

Rotor Eccentricity

Detect shorted turns and air-gap non-uniformity per IEEE 115. Enter per-pole voltages and get an instant GOOD / QUESTIONABLE / BAD diagnostic with per-pole deviation breakdown.

Browse 1,200+ reference motors by HP, poles, and voltage. Import directly into the winding calculator.

Not a claim about accuracy. An actual machine from the catalogue, calculated here on this page by the same engine the product uses. If the maths ever changed, these figures would change with it.

Three-phase, star-connected. The coil spans the full pole pitch (nine slots for a 36-slot four-pole machine), so the chord factor is exactly 1 and the winding factor is set by distribution alone. The catalogue already held this motor; a rewinder would not have typed any of it.
