US Made Servos?

[utahnorton]

I am building a 5x10 CNC plasma/router table using a THC 1000, Gecko drives,
most likely a 24 pitch rack and I am trying to find non Chinese servos-preferably US made (political, fair trade and job reasons-and willing to pay extra for it). I will be running a tandem (master & slave) for the gantry and one for the X. Already have a complete Z with ballscrew. Any suggestions for sources? I recently overhauled a Varnamo mill using all Centroid servos & control and it has been very smooth. Problem is finding something to interface with the THC 1000 and Geckos.

Cheers,

Tom

You could check out peerless . Industrial companies seem kind of snobby and don't want to talk to you unless you are placing a large order through another equally large company. Their motors do show up on ebay sometimes.

Jason,

Thanks for the reply! I was able to find some Ametek (NOS) servos for a reasonable price. I think they might work out OK.

Cheers,

Tom
