I originally saw a Youtube video by jumps42009 Where he mounted a DC Servo Sewing machine motor to his 9X20 lathe.
• 3/4hp sewing machine motor mounted on...
This got me thinking about upgrading my own Lathe. I decided to go with an AC Motor as i did not want to have to deal with brushes, or burned commutators should the motor ever lock up. plus the AC Servo motor was much smaller. Most of the AC servo's have a clunky, hard to use digital read out and push button speed and direction system. I chose the Yuma as it had Manual Speed and Direction controls!

I’d love an update and running video of it on your Lathe if you’ve got it on there! Super cool! These motors would be awesome for smaller drill presses and mills too honestly. They’re just such killer value.

Thx for video, i like to see finished machine 😁

Just found your channel and subscribed. Very nice work
-
Thank you for showing, I have a 9x20 G4000 and your idea would be perfect in my case, however, I was hoping that you would show the mods to the motor and lathe, I know now that I have to try to fit it my self and see how I will and complete the mod, thank you and have a good day.

Now that was an unboxing on steroids! I especially liked how the control box was opened to see how difficult it would be to extend the controls for the lathe. Very well done. It would be nice to see a follow on to see how well it is working on your 9x20 lathe.

Do you think the motor is usable for a small bandsaw? The variable speed makes me think of using it so my bandsaw can be used to cut metal
-
One thing I forgot to add is that these have Braking action! so when you let off the speed control, the motor actually brakes. which on a lathe, my need to have some adjustment to make work. I just got the pulley machined for it and will be working on making a motor mount next when i get time again. stay tuned for further episodes of this adventure!

Did you ever get this installed? Also, if so, how is it holding up? I have heard that these inexpensive servo motors are not always long lasting.
-
I want to make a tool post mounted milling/drilling spindle, one of these motors would be ideal for that.
-
Can you provide a video of your lathe, showing how the motor works? Thanks.
-
The controller chip looks similar to electric bike controller. Same hall sensors and three phase bldc motor
-
Guessing there won't be an update right?
-
Sir, is the speed linear with the movement of the lever ? I noticed you change the program speed. Is the program speed the setting of the max speed the motor could turn ? This means if you set to 3000 rpm, the speed can vary linearly between 0-3000 rpm? I am looking to use for cnc application. Does the input control take voltage say 0-5 or 0-10 V?

Those are some tiny wires for a motor with that much power draw. I think im going to buy one for my Harbor Freight mini wood lathe
-
Hi,how is the low end torque? Stay healthy.
-
hy ! can u maybe help me a little ! i want to add such a motor on my mini mill x2 rom Sieg. and i would like to know if the shaft from the motor has the pin sticking out or is this a threaded shaft ? and also , could you please tell me if there can be new mouning holes drilled and tapped on the plate where the shaft is sticking out ?
-
I checked out your videos and you never did a follow up video actually showing the installed motor with comments about how well it functioned It would be nice to know if it worked or not.
-
Dang looks like you got the only one. I can’t find that thing ANYWHERE NOW. It’s all the cruddy little membrane buttons.
-
When, do you suppose that manufacturers will adopt this type of motor as original equipment?
-
How is the low speed torque? I've read that a BLDC motor will never be great for low speed torque and a induction motor with vfd is much better. I want to upgrade my small lathe and be able to thread cut at ~400rpm. Thanks for posting the video
