I ripped the top cover off of the motor assm. and saw 2 heavy wires (#10) and 2 light wires (#16). The heavy ones would be for the drive pwr, but what are the light one's for? |
Thats what you get when you answer in a hurry, I was just on my way out and realized I had given you a bum steer, the two small wire are the tach wires which you should not need on modern amps as they are used in the current mode rather than velocity mode.

Electro Craft
Part# 0652-00-004 I need to know the specs of this motor. |
I have the listing for the 0642 which is a DC motor, often ElectroCraft supply OEM's and put a house number on, so the only way to identify is by physical dimensions and obtain as many electrical characteristics as possible.

BEI Motion Systems Company
Model# : L25G-F2-SB-500-ABZC-8830-LED-SC18-S
Part# : 924-01008-1195 Will these encoders work with a Gecko or a Rutex board? |
These are 500 count/rev line driver with ABZ pulses complementary outputs, you should be able to use just one channel if thats all that the amps require.
Originally Posted by DSL PWR I also have 3 Bison gear boxes, the 2 on the westamps are 30.6:1, and the one on the stepper is 40:1. What lube if any is used in these? |
They can be used in a CNC application but only if they are zero ( or low) backlash type.
The lube requirement you would have to get from the Bison web site.

So here is my wish list: |
Most of those items B&T should be able to provide, but BC Bearing supply Boston Gear rack, there may be a one near you, or Calgary.
If you want AMP connectors, the CPC style are one of the most economical for quick disconnect and resemble the military MS style, Electrosonic supply them, the pins can be soldered so you do not need an expensive crimper.
