I found future data in the hall effect of electric lines, AWESOME!!!!!!! I accidentally cut a 240v cable in the garage it was arcing next to my laptop and the website image changed I was older and my daughter as tall as I am. I thought this phenomena was disabled years ago! I guess not!!! AWESOME Energy Equals Life dot com
I have a DC 1.5v motor tiny thing.. but. it keeps doing a deep groaning grinding noise, oiled it but couple days later same thing...this is for a cuckoo clock to power sails for it please help !
With a good lathe, as you have, you could do a very light surfacing on the commutators and it will improve performance of the motor. If I recall, you can also put a V shape into the brushes to further help performance and life span.
Sounded like Sabaton in the background, but how much HP does a motor like that have? It's an older video so I'm sure this was answered at some point, sorry if I am regurgitating the question.
When i worked for Dewalt, whenever we had to replace a bearing and couldn't get in behind it to pull it off, we would put it in vice, crush the outer race and remove the balls and cage, then clamp a bearing separator on the inner race and could press it off that way. Perhaps you needed to save the old bearing for reference in finding a replacement?
I've gone through some old universal motors which came out of old adding machines, and when I polished the commutator bars I always used cup leathers. They polish them up very well and will not take off any metal.
yeah, I was expecting worse damage. good news is we toss them out at work when they get as bad as this so I should have enough to make a multi-wheel independant drive system some day.

ReplyDeletewhat I like about this video is it can upgraded to 2 more brushed for increased current and power.
ReplyDeletenope, I got it from my work, it was used in conjunction with a gearbox to wind up pool covers
ReplyDeletewhere did you get this big motor ? in a copier machine ?
ReplyDeleteyeh i think I polished the comm bars on the lathe but that was all it needed.
ReplyDeleteits a 600W motor, not sure how you measure HP on a DC motor since they are a lot more different to induction motors

ReplyDeletethanks from a eletric novice
ReplyDeleteThis one came off a swimming pool cover rolling machine, used to roll up commercial/Olympic size pool covers
ReplyDeleteWhat application was this motor used in? Was it for a power tool of some type?
ReplyDeleteI ended up cutting it off with a grinder, it turned out I had NOS bearings in stock for it and I had it finished that night.
ReplyDeletejust gotta get around to putting the vid up.

ReplyDeleteThat should be a good motor once you're done with it.
ReplyDeletenice job on that.. .will look forward to seeing the multi-wheel independent drive system some day!
ReplyDeletelol it worked. nice job. the bearings should not cost more than $4.80 each.
ReplyDeleteNice! good as new again! I'd do the same thing!
ReplyDeletevery nice! wasn't too hard!
ReplyDeletei'm working on getting a lil kawi 2-stroke going right now, vid on my channel!
Nice! Thats going to be a sweet lil motor once done. Good job.
ReplyDeletenice free money

ReplyDeletethats nothing i seen worse than this and i got them working
