I cannot find a motor supplier that can match this motor. I guess its a proprietary item.

The motor tests bad. Power to the motor is good.

Where can I get one?

thank You,

Thanks,

WoW, I have a feeling I'll be doing without. The electrician who diagnosed it did not pull the brushes I'm sure. I believe he may have gotten lazy on me seeing power going in and the motor not responding.
I hope he was wrong. Could it be just the brushes?
 
Sweet mill. I have one like it. I only have the X axis drive though. My motor went bad on it and seeing those shocking prices....I converted to a treadmill motor. Not sure if that is workable for that Y axis.

The end of the armature had the gear teeth machined into it if I remember right. That's what made it hard to replace and expensive. I cut of the armature end with the gear and adapted a lovejoy type coupler so the treadmill motor could run it. Motor housing had to be cut down and a bearing holder made. Not a simple conversion.

My armature burned and the board also burned up....had it been just the armature I probably would have looked hard for a place to rewind it.
 
Thanks,

This motor has a removable gear. I'll see if we can get it looked at.

A good motor shop should be able to diagnose what is wrong with it.

Thank You, I called and they do boards and drives only. I was referred to Rome Electric


Upon closer inspection,
I removed one of the brush caps and it would not spring up.
I lightly prodded it and there is no movement at all. I put the cap back on.
I then rolled it over to the other brush cap and can see someone has chipped the screw slot.

Like I said, the previous crew would be capable of running the brushes into the ground until it quit, or anything no-craft or slob like.

We sent the motor out in the Marietta area..
