Birmingham, Ala. – Motion Industries, a leading distributor of industrial maintenance, repair, and operation (MRO) replacement parts has released a new MiHow2 video. The video series’ goal is to provide instruction to the viewers to help them with their practical applications.
The video explains how shaft current is created and gives the viewer practical ways to eliminate it. “Ways to Minimize Damaging Shaft Currents from Baldor Electric,” which was filmed in collaboration with key Motion Industries supplier, Baldor Electric, can now be viewed on the new MiHow2.com under the MiHow2 heading.

“Knowing how to deal with shaft current is essential,” said Randy Breaux, Motion Industries’ Senior Vice President, Southern U.S. Operations, Corporate Marketing and Strategic Planning. “This can help prevent fluting of the bearing, which can be costly to fix or replace.”
