Looking to get a picture of the data tag on the Glentek DC servo motor off of a FADAL VMC15 XT. MY X,Y, and Z information on the tags are all worn off from over the years. Looking for the HP, KW, RPM max, cont. power rating etc.. all should be on the tag. If anyone could help would be awesome.

Thanks

And it it said what? Add it to the forum and we all have it later.
I'm sure most of our tags are worn off also.

Has any Fadal owners here had a DC servo motor rebuilt from a shop? If you have, I along with others on here would like to know what your experience was and if it saved on the cost of a new one. I do understand that if you use your machine in a production environment that you would more than likely just buy a new one as downtime will cost you more than the new motor. Trying to find a shop that does a good rebuild job on these servo motors particularly the MTR-0002 which is used on all VMV15 machines that have the DC chassis.

Thanks

Hi, I had my X axis motor rebuilt by FadalCNC.com and I'm happy with the result! It was worth it for me because so much was wrong with it, just the brushes, tach and new resolver would have been more expensive than the rebuild. My only complaint is that the paint job is a bit sloppy, they didn't wait for it to fully dry before packing it in a box and mailing it. The bottom line is that you save money by having it rebuilt, and you won't notice any performance difference between new and rebuilt.

@PhilCNC2020 - That's good to know! Thanks.
