I work with a company that puts them on some high speed lacing machines which is pretty much a torture test and they run and run. If those are good drives, motors and gearboxes that would be a good deal. Machmotion is selling a similar Teco servo motor/drive/gearbox setup. Dave I looked up the specs on the HC-KFS43B. They're wee little things. Smaller than the DC brush motors on it. For the Z axis I can't go any larger diameter than the Baldor that's on it.
Rated torque of those AC motors is 1.3 NM, peak torque 3.9 NM. I don't know the rated torque of the current motors, their peak/stall is 3 NM. I didn't see any torque numbers other than the peak/stall when looking for specs on the vintage ones. Dunno if 1.3 NM would be enough to move that large table around, though it has ball screws and cogged belt reduction drives. The MR-J2S-40B1 looks like it would suit me better since the label only shows 1 phase power input. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get your SQL database under version control now!
