looking at replacing my sem servo motor with something like this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3KW-WATER-...item2a52124388
as my machine has an ATC I need to get a pulley attached to the end of the spindle.
the plan would be to mod and existing pulley rather than make a new one, so question is where do I find thread details of an ER20?
many thanks
Is this what you are looking for http://www.amazon.com/Dorian-Tool-ER.../dp/B00CB0Y7SI M25 x 1.5 Thread ..CliveQuote:

Andy Are you sure the spindle you linked to will do the job as they don't have any torque at low speeds say lower than about 3.5K rpm not like a servo ..Clive
well...Quote:

although a very good motor with lots of torque it only does 4000rpm, so my feed rates are really slow. but yes I can do a 2mm deep cut in ally with an 8mm cutter, or a 1mm deep cut in ally with a 20mm cutter without any trouble.
what I was thinking was to get one of these Chinese spindles, swap the bearings out on my mill so they can handle the speed and do a 2:1 reduction. so id be looking at 12000rpm. so I would gain a bit more torque.
I don't actually need to run the spindle at slow speeds, I use threadmills for tapping etc...
Ok I was wondering if you needed position control on the spindle for the atc. That's not so easy on the spindle you linked too.. ..Clive
nope don't need anything like that.Quote:

I suppose it should be in the manual:smile: but who knows.Quote:

Chinese manuals don't have any information you need, just the information you don't need
Being up north you have to have a sense of humour If jonathan was on line he would most likely know that sort of info. Nice spindle though.Quote:
