Hi everyone,
A little about my idea :idea::
I work for a company who does design work for Reuland Electric. My company also designs our own high speed, high HP motors. The previous one we designed is supposed to be 30,000 RPM and 200HP :rainfro:. It will be used to test jet engines. :rainfro: :rainfro: :rainfro:
About me:
I have always wanted to design a hobby sized, but industrial quality, CNC milling machine or a lathe. From the reading I have done, the spindle is the first thing that I would need to design.
My idea is (if there is any interest):
I could have 10 to 20 of these spindles made which would reduce the manufacturing cost. Currently the CAD model I have is about 7.5" OD, and 24" long (dimensions are subject to change as needed). I am doing all the design work at home and on my own time, so there will be limited to no additional engineering costs.
Would anybody be interested in purchasing a USA made spindle at the speed and HP in the title? Or am I dreaming?
Any Comments or Questions?
