What we do
Everything that spins, shorted or won’t start.
If it has windings, we can strip it, rewind it, re-insulate it and prove it. Most work never leaves the premises.

The workshop
Two brothers started this in 1965.
We never stopped.
O.L. Gustavo Armature Winders was established by the brothers OL and HV Gustavo and has been rewinding motors in Edenvale ever since — through six decades of South African industry, and through every size of job that comes through the door.
Today the workshop runs on 23 people with years of hands-on experience, and management holding BSc degrees. Motors are stripped, wound, varnished, encapsulated, balanced and tested in-house — so nothing is lost in transit and nothing is guessed at.

How it works
From breakdown to back on the line.
-
Step 01
Tell us what failed
Phone, email or WhatsApp us the details — motor size, application, what it’s doing (or not doing). Bring it in or arrange collection with us.
-
Step 02
Assessment & quote
We strip and inspect the unit, then come back to you with what’s actually wrong and a quote before any work starts.
-
Step 03
Rewind & rebuild
New windings, insulation, varnish impregnation or epoxy encapsulation as the job requires — all done under our own roof.
-
Step 04
Test & return
Growler testing and balancing, then the motor goes back to you ready to run.
