Look at EBay. I ordered my DMM servos and drives from them on Ebay. Saved a couple hundred and free shipping. I’m working on getting them up and running. I bought them for a PM45.

I bought the Leeson D80C 1.5 HP motor 6 months ago to install onto my PM-25. I just ordered the BTP belt drive kit also. Can anyone tell me if the kit comes with the carrier bearings and the new...

Well I figured out the problem. My plan is to go to VFD so I bought this BOB to make it easier if the future. Even though 5VDC is energizing the board, you have to have 12-24VDC hooked up on the VFD...
