Well I received some not so great news about the spindle motor. It seems that it may be toast. They are going to try to fix the commentator but whoever owned this thing before put lots of new brushes in it but never had it serviced...so the brushes have eaten there way through most of the comm.
Does anyone have any sudgestions on what I might be able to do to replace this motor?
I cannot seem to find any .5hp 90v dc motors that are this size. The area for it to mount is about 3.5dia max by about 4.5Length. This may be a show stopper if the rebuild shop cannot fix it.
I am open to any great ideas.
Would possibly a servo motor fit in there? Anyone?
Thanks
