About us
For 75+ years, IRD® LLC has specialized in highly technical machinery that assists in the repair of industrial equipment. Its two brands, IRD® Balancing and Lexseco™, are the industry standard for soft-bearing balancing technology and electric motor core loss testing. In 1952, IRD® introduced the industrial market to the first portable balancing instrument and vibration analyzer giving us over 65 years of balancing experience in which to engineer and manufacture the quality solution for any balancing application. IRD also designed and produced the industry's first core loss tester under the brand name Lexseco in 1978, leading to establish core loss testing as an industry standard quality test for electric motor repair. Both product lines have advanced with the purpose of providing top-of-the-line machinery across the globe. IRD believes that excellence in workmanship and a high level of productivity are the key components to building long-term relationships with our customers.
