Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
I agree I plan to start thread on control board/box later.? It more fof information but is very important to almost everything around us. It is thread that can not be contained just to mini lathe.

Brushless mini lathe motor torque chart.
*Brushless mini lathe motor torque chart* compare to DC motors. I know the DC motors have very high torque as the motor slow down.? The standard ac squire cage motor is about same the rpm's drop

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
Don't know what the leadscrew has to do with motor longevity, but if concerned with debris getting into the control box (a possibility) and shorting electronic components: LMS Part number 2562?

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
There are a number of things that can be done to seal the lead screw opening in the control box. That was a big topic years ago! The easiest one is to slide a garden hose washer on to the lead screw,

*Thank you all for your input* What found is the carbon dust from burshes is staying inside. This like carbon resistor. The across electrical heater up the motor. To fix the it could be as simple

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
I agree They do a lot of short cuts to cheap the price This a motor I have purchased 40 years age for machine tools great longe lasting motor. The draw back is cost more than lathe Then the control

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
What is there to figure out? Better components simply cost more to manufacture than poor quality components and quality control adds costs that are not passed on to consumers from companies with

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
When using my lathe I switched the belt to low speed this make the motor run faster . My temperature gauge tells that never gets very hot. WhatI I am thinking if use lathe motor at higher speed cuts

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
The speed depends on the material and the diameter. I have turned a piece of 3 inch diameter stainless down to make a ER 32 collet chuck. I don¡¯t take budget cuts. On a recent part I took 0.040 from

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
That is great news. I have been reading a lot motors troubles on mini lathe. I could be speed the min lathe runs at is the different. Do you due most work on higher motor speed? Dave

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
I got my Speedway mini lathe in June of 2002 and have used it extensively with no motor problems. I did have to have the control box repaired about three years ago. John [email protected]>

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
*Question* When running at low speed do you * change your belts * Keep belt the the same and just adjust motor speed * Something else *Second Question* How slow do you typically turn in low speed

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
I was looking internet on longevity of dc motors and founds you may like read. The first is the most common motors for mini lathes. The second link is on industrial DC motor they very expensive for

Re: Mini lathe DC motor longevity
Interesting replacement. I do not here of any one changing brushes. I do know the type and size of brushes the use on mini lathe motor will last 1,000 to 3,000 hours. Items like sewing machines and

Look at improve the longevity of the mini lathe motor. I see a lot members having motors problems. Now is from environmental , operator , motor control board or motor errors? FYI There are two basic

Re: how to.inspect.motor?
Under some conditions a motor can get starting a lot . The motor under no loal it about 2 times or 3 time running amperage just second. If air compressors is higher but longer too. Most mini lathe

Re: how to.inspect.motor?
The problems you can run into with mini lathe is more just single speed motor. 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

Re: how to.inspect.motor?
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
