McMillan Electric manufactures millions of motors and motor products a year. We ship to customers throughout North America, and they, in turn, sell their products worldwide. As our reach extends, so does our quality and our responsiveness to customer needs. With our ISO 9001 procedures well tested, we continue finding ways to improve. The more globally competitive our industry becomes, the better we seem to do. Our success is due to many factors — engineering, automation, integrated quality control, teamwork and customer service — and to the contributions of each and every employee. It's quality people teaming with a quality company to make quality products.
We continually study every detail of the manufacturing process for ways to reduce costs by using manpower, materials and energy more efficiently. Among the results: Fully automated shaded pole stator core manufacturing includes stacking and seamless bonding of laminations as well as inserting, forming and welding of shading coils; Fully automated rotor manufacturing with continuous stacking, skewing, pinning and feeding of subassemblies to a computer-controlled diecasting system; High-speed multi-head coil winding and wire lacing; Automatic slot insulation, coil winding and commutator welding on permanent magnet DC motors; "Star Wars" trickle varnish system for armature windings; and Automated bell cover stamping and finishing. While automation cuts costs, it also assures quality. By minimizing the potential for human error, we're able to achieve our highest levels of precision ever. What it all comes down to is value: high quality motors, when you need them, at highly competitive prices.
From an economy fan motor to the most demanding new BFDC application, McMillan Electric engineers have the skill and experience to turn your R&D department's vision into a working reality. We can work closely with you from the earliest stages of your product development to optimize cost and performance. In a modern Electrical and Mechanical Engineering office, all engineers use cutting-edge CAD (computer-aided design) technology. McMillan can render a part or a product in 2D or 3D. From there, a 3D part or assembly can be tested in software for functionality in an application, before it is made into a sample or released to production. All samples are produced on Production equipment. This assures consistent samples that represent exactly what you will receive in production quantities.
At McMillan Electric, Quality is Engineered into our motor products, not only through design, but in the manufacturing process. We've pioneered many new manufacturing procedures, including integral epoxy insulation, direct wind technology, automated assembly and computerized final assembly testing.
