The mini lathe motor top speed is around 6,000 rpm Now we slow motor down 300 rpm remember the cooling fan is now run at 300 rpm too. The manufacturers of mini lathes do not say anything. This also be a problem with motor over heating too. Now let's add hot temperatures of summer too. In this case some add a cooling fans. I add a temperature gauge and if problem next step is a cooling fan. When work on drill motors it was bugs dieing on brush was big problem or sometimes coke , coffee and beer. Heat problem was next one. Dave On Fri, Jul 12, 2024 at 05:37 PM, Roy wrote: Don't forget about the difference in expected running times. Starter motors only run for a few seconds under a heavy mechanical load - most common motors run for much longer times under lighter mechanical loads. |
