Houghton International is highly confident in the quality of our coils and insulation systems and is proud to stand by them by offering an extended warranty. Our coils are designed to the highest standards and are fully tested prior to being dispatched, we see no reason they shouldn’t perform in line with the life expectancy of the refurbished machine.

As repairers ourselves, we understand the repair market is increasingly competitive and want to support our customers to give them the best chance of securing the rewind contract. By working with our customers to offer longer term quality assurance and standing by our workmanship we believe we can support a more attractive offer to the end user/asset owner where reliability is a key concern.

Warranty cost and duration can be tailored in line with customer requirements and the criticality of the repair.

Our state of the art manufacturing facility comprises of a comprehensive range of automated shaping machines and electrically heated hydraulic presses.

Through a team of specialist pre-formed winding technicians we are also able to support our customers by carrying out rewinding projects in their facilities or on-site on a global basis.

We also have facilities for in-house testing; lamination, turn to turn, tan-delta and tip up, voltage endurance, partial discharge and hi-pot.

Our quality assurance model, accredited to ISO 9001:2008, is designed around the requirements of each individual type of coil, meaning we create a dedicated quality management system bespoke to each individual product. This process consistently produces industry-leading insulation systems.
