The Brandon & Clark Difference
In today’s “commoditized” competitive landscape, it can be hard to see what makes one solutions provider different from another. It might be tempting to go with the lowest bidder, right? Even though on the surface it might appear “all are equal,” that is far from the truth. When it comes to repair, quality control, repair methodology, testing capabilities, materials used, experience and repair equipment all influence the repairs at hand. Beyond our fundamental differences, we also provide value to your industry, business and processes.
Rotor Testing Development and Innovation
- RMFA and sRMFA Technology was developed by Brandon & Clark’s staff of Professional Electrical Engineers
- Many current methods of rotor testing lack the sensitivity to detect rotor bar defects beyond major issues such as a broken rotor bar.
- Measuring the magnetic field of a rotor when excited from an external source allows for the detection of a wide variety of rotor defects such as brazed connection degradation, cracked rotor bars, broken rotor bars, and casting defects.
- This method of testing provides advantages over many current testing techniques in testing sensitivity, recording, reporting, illustration of machine condition to the end user, and testing safety.
Services that Get to the Root Cause of Failures
Motion Amplification – What you See Changes Everything. See the problem. See the solution. Motion Amplification is a service that utilizes patented technology to measure deflection, displacement, movement and vibration of equipment and structures not visible to the human eye. Utilizing a high-performance video streaming camera, in conjunction with one-of-a-kind software and processing algorithms, we are able to extract meaningful data that resolves problems.
Useful to:
- Identify
- Validate
- Specify the source of reliability issues
- Prioritize maintenance
From Preventative to Predictive Maintenance
Brandon & Clark can take your maintenance efforts from preventive to predicative, from reactive to proactive through condition monitoring services.
Condition monitoring is the process of understanding your equipment’s current and trending characteristics that indicate the health of your asset.
Facilities That Can Accommodate Your Repair Needs
Brandon & Clark has several motor repair facilities spanning the Texas Panhandle, the Permian Basin, and East Texas. We are equipped with:
- In-house machine and fabrication capabilities
- Vertical mill

Controlled Burn-Out Oven
In order to provide the very best motor repair, rewind or rebuild, you must first begin with the cleanest motor possible. To achieve these results the removal of old varnish, paint and insulation must take place. Brandon & Clark is equipped with a fully controlled pyrolysis cleaning, or “burn-out”, oven that allows us to easily and quickly remove old material in a manner that is safe for the equipment and the environment.
- Safely strips the stator and parts without damage
- Fire prevention
- No pollution
- Large capacity
- Efficient
- Automatic controls to regulate the temperature
