1 HP 750 Watt Computer Controller and Matching Servo Motor fits 7 X 12 two speed Mini Metal Lathes. Fit to a Grizzly G8688.
In the original motor location of the above 2 speed mini metal lathes. Of all threading gears and auto feed systems.
This is the only one I have. All new adapters/parts are hand cut/made. It will be months before the mass produced parts arrive. Fits 7 X 12 Grizzly G8688 mini metal lathes. That have an intermediate shaft (high/low gear) and a 3 chuck.
Will it fit the 7 X 14 two speeds: Maybe but likely the gear is wrong and the belt is to short. That will come in the future. Kinda like replacing the small block with a big block in your Mustang/Camaro muscle car. Just pure power, so much so that you will never use all of it.
This system provides full power at any speed and that includes Spindle RPM's as low as 50 RPM's in low gear. Motor and spindle speeds + Reverse. The motor speed can be. And or full range can be achieved with just the speed control rotary knob on the. Only requires a few easy steps. Reverse is simple, just hold the yellow button for a few seconds. Includes the ability to set bottom and top RPM range separately.In other words you can program the system to run the spindle at any speed or range of speeds you choose (see below). Slowest speed achievable: Motor 300 RPM. Highest speed this one produced: Motor 4000 RPM. Note: it is not recommended to run the motor any faster than 3,000 RPM.
I have a functioning servo driver that allows remote control. Each of the three speeds can be set as follows. Anywhere between 300 and 1,000 RPM.Anywhere between 900 and 3,200 RPM. Anywhere between 2,000 and 4,500 RPM. Emergency cut off/power stop function. Each of which is energized by a single on off contact via wire.
On the back of the control unit. Ask if you are interested. See it (prototype 1 from 2 years ago is a 7 X 14 single speed) running. On You Tube search for.Mini Metal Lathe 1 HP Servo Motor 750 Watt Computer controlled with threading and gears Same username The Custom Crafter. I will do a video on this system as soon as I can find the time to do it. This listing is for a fully alpha tested system. The exact one seen in the photos.
A new 750 watt motor like the one seen here in photos. Motor will come with the motor mount installed and locked in the proper location for the test lathe. This may require adjustment to fit your lathe. It will also come with the small timing pulley installed on it using a 4mm key-way and main shaft nut. A new control computer with internal speed control.
The one seen in photos. This control unit is modified by The Custom Crafter to include a thermal overload system with reset button. (see photo, make note, color of the reset button may be black or red). The Custom Crafter made in the USA motor mount. (installed on motor, see line 1). Mounting hardware includes thick washers and grade 8 nuts. One aluminum intermediate shaft timing pulley machined by The Custom Crafter to fit (see photos).One aluminum motor timing pulley machined by the Custom Crafter to fit the motor (see photos). Comes preinstalled on motor (see line 1). A new L050 1/2 wide timing belt.
A custom belt cover plate to allow for the larger belt. Package will not include basic written assembly instructions yet. There will be a text number for direct assistance from the custom Crafter. Assembly requires some technical skill to include minor machine work. Note: Check the photos in this listing.
If your lathe has holes instead of the normal slots, this motor will not fit without your ability to slot the cast iron lathe bed. You will need metric and domestic allen wrenches + a 13mm/1/2 deep socket and ratchet. Some shorter allen head metric bolts (not included) may also be required, especially to clear the timing belt as the belt cover is machined thinner to allow for the larger belt. This system has so much more power that it becomes tempting to see just how much you can cut in a single pass.
Do not do this because the rest of the mini lathe is not built strong/stable enough for this kind of abuse. If you jam it, you may damage the lathe to include broken cutters, parts and the control unit.
All lathes are dangerous, increasing the. To insure fit and proper application. Is suitable for your intended use. Large flat rate box and to USA only.
Main components have a unique internal water soluble identification mark. No return authorizations will be issued after the 10 day period. Also as I build them, they are improved as I never cut corners to save penny's.
