Ok, I've managed to uncover the motors
Attachment 17245
Motors are a Shinano SST58D 3830. 1.5v 4.4A
data sheet here http://shinano.com/motors/docs/SST58D.pdf
Anyone give me any hints on what this means - good or bad news? Please tell me I don't have t replace these!!
They look OK to me. Can you find out what the secondary Voltage says on the transformer (or can you measure the DC Volts across the blue capacitor) in the power supply as Dean (Jazzcnc) has asked before
Ahh across the blue capacitor, thank you! - it measures 24.5v .... Not the 36v suggested!
Ok then it looks like you will need to build a new power supply it basically consists of the transformer, Caps and a rectifier about £45-£50. What part of Manchester are you in?Quote:

Not changing would be like having a ferrari and never taking out of 2nd gear.!Quote:

These will work nice for that small machine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Leadshine-...kAAOSwNSxVIEIlQuote:

Either build one like clive says which is very easy and done exactly like what's inside the machine already just with larger transformer and capacitors. You will probably be able to re-use the bridge rectifier may even be able to re-use the Capacitor depending on it's size and just add another.? Thou for the cost you may be better just replacing.
WARNING### Capacitors can give you nasty shock when charged up so don't go fiddling unless your sure they are dischraged. Always check with a meter before touching across termianls.
Dean, how would these compare to the cnc4you CW-5045 ?

Not used them and the spec doesn't give much away which is always a bad sign IMO. The spec sheet reads like they are just Analog Chopper drives and nothing special.Quote:
