hello everyone!

I have a 30 yr old boring mill that have GE servo motors and spindle and drives. I am looking to replace these motors or stock them on my shelves as spares. Can anyone help me locate a company that would possibly stock or deals with some of these motors or compatible rebuilds. I have all the specs if needed. Not having any luck using the Surplus Record guide.

Rich!!!

Rich, If it's the GE servo's I am thinking of they are quite large for their HP size compared to more modern servo's, check with the retro-fitters in your area, a lot get junked when stripped off of older machines, there is North American Industrial in Mississauga 905-565-6166, you may want to check with, they do some retrofitting. They also have a technician that worked on the original GE1050's etc.
As a last resort take the info off the motor label and look for sub's. If they are larger motors, look for Getty's or Fanuc DC servo motors on ebay, They are pretty rugged and flexible as to adapting to other drives. BTW what control do you have?.

thanks for your response Al! I will look into this information. I have a TNC 310 Heidenhain controler on our boring mill.
