    Default Induction Motor is it a Pinion Drive?

    I have an old 3 phase 90w induction motor. Can't remember what it came off. But it's got a twisted pinion shaft that I expect goes into a reduction gearbox.

    I want to use it for a drive on a machine but don't have a gearbox just a pinion shaft.

    Question. Is there a pulley or sprocket that is available for a shaft like this? I've had a pretty good look on the net and can't seem to find anything. My only other alternative is to make something custom. It doesn't need to be perfect or hold a lot of torque. Just drive.

    Anyone have a suggestion or know about these?

    Is it like a normal pinion shaft with a keyway? If so, what diameter?.
    If the above is the case then you could look at taperlock bush & pulley combos if they have a bush in your size.

    I recently got a 19mm bore taper bush and 112mm taperlock pulley to fit my servo.

    No mate. It's one of these. I could gash something untidy together but it would be good to get something proper. I only know a reduction gearbox that might marry but I don't want to buy one and don't need it reduced in speed.Induction Motor is it a Pinion Drive?-screenshot_20210420-070934_trade-jpg

    That is the pinion gear built into the motor shaft. There is no stock component that will convert directly to a pulley type drive. A clamp type drive coupling should grab onto the shaft, you are just going to have to build something.

    Hi Jim is that a fact. Ok. I will make something for it. I did see a split sprocket actually that looked like a solution. Off the motor its high rpm low torque required.

    Cheers
