Smithy Granite 1324 2 hp Servo Motor Mod + Driver Control Lathe Mill main board

Description: D.I.Y. Convert Your Old Brushed Smithy Granite to A 2 HP 1500 Watt Computer Controlled Servo Motor. Upgrade includes an external Speed Control Switch. Built to fit 2004 Smithy Granite model 1324 The 2023 models are here. Images still need updating. V-Belts are not included. Now comes with the Custom Crafter improved design machined flat face plate. Up date: There are now 25 of these installed. Number one helped me design itThe next two owners bolted it on and are very happy with the end result.I have received many compliments on how much better their smithy works with the new motor.I have one customer who just is not happy. Complains about the motor mount being crude. Complained about the old version speed switch. His system warranty expired over a year ago. When I offered to install the new version switch in his control unit for free: He demanded I send him a new control unit for free.One customer found the mounting bolts needed a little longer slot.No matter what size v-belts we provide the buyer wants something else.Notes related to above list:We are no longer including V-belts and instead offer suggestions. The mounts we make are based on customer drawings and their feedback. This means minor grinding or slotting may be required.About V belts: One machine uses a single belt to the spindle. The other has an intermediate shaft and 2 belts. Smithy sends 4-5 belts because they do not know what belts fit.The new servo motor runs at much higher speeds than the original motor. This means that the old 1/2" wide belts may have issues. The 1/2" wide belts may distort and hit the sharp edge on the top of the V pulley.The new cogged automotive belts are much better + heat and oil resistant. The cogged automotive type belts will be approximately 0.44 " wide. This works better than 1/2" as it lands in the V on the pulley.The below belts are suggestions from previous installers. We do not sell these belts so you will be searching other sellers listings on eBay. We recommend you measure the old belts. Suggestions of other sellers v-belt listings are: 4L390 V-Belt (1/2" wide)(39" long). See eBay item # 121951863933 15395 V-Belt (39.5" Long)(15/32" Top Wide) See eBay item # 19506687973315405 Cogged automotive V belt (41.07" long)(0.46875" wide) See eBay item # 1947027859834L280 V-Belt (1/2" wide)(28" long) See eBay item # 111965240576See images of both versions.Image 6 is single speed.Image 7 is the 2 speed versionBelt tension may require cutting out the back plate to increase motor/tensioner travel.See image 8 Lead time: There is a 5 day delay added to the ship date. This is so we can make sure and build it + ship it so that you receive it in the time allotment allowed. Likely that will be more like 3 days lead time but always better to meet promise times and with a few days to clear. Sold with a custom built matching control unit (the control unit in plastic housing as seen in image 1). This version would screw onto the underside of a cabinet just above the motor area of the smithy. Speed is programmable for any range between 300 to 3,500 RPM. See below for additional cost to include custom made aluminum control unit upgrade instead of plastic unit. Current motor mount design: Allows for motor to be installed upright and reversed. This allows for either control unit to be used during your install. please contact me for instructions if you wish to reverse. Current motor to control unit wiring: All motors sold for this system now have the longer wires between the control unit and the motor (2022 version released Oct 2021). This ads distance to mount the standard plastic housing version control unit further away from the machine. It also eases installation of the custom aluminum housing control unit upgrade. See images for measurements. Note: the maximum distance between control unit and motor is now 28" (was 22"). Custom builds with aluminum control unit require the longer wiring between motor and control unit. Runs on typical 110 to 120 volt AC household power supply's. Ask about 220/250V AC Includes (what is in the box):A complete servo motor as seen in images.A stand alone and programmable custom built servo motor driver with overload protection. Plastic version seen in image 1.An external speed control switch. Seen in image 1.A welded steel motor mount designed to fit the Smithy seen in images. Look close at images as some of these machines have a different mounting system.The specialty bolts required for the motor to the motor mount.The bolts required for the motor mount to the Smithy.The pulley is now custom made, very true, smooth and accurate. It comes preinstalled on the motor.Motor programming + spindle speeds and Reverse:The motor speed can be programmed to operate in any range chosen by the user. Between 300 and 3,500 RPM's.The full range of speed (RPM's) can also be controlled with just the speed control knob.Speed control programming only requires a few easy steps.Reverse is simple, just hold the yellow button for a few seconds.Programming includes the ability to set bottom and top RPM range separately. In other words you can program the system to run the spindle at any speed or range of speeds you choose (see below). Slowest speed achievable: Motor 300 RPM. (Below 400 is not recommended). Highest speed: 3,500 RPM. (Can be programmed to reach 5,000 RPM. This is seriously not recommended. It is also dangerous as in parts could fly across the room causing serious bodily injury even death.) Setting above 3,500 RPM also voids warranty.Soft start is programmable and will be set to medium/soft when you receive this motor. This program is very effective in reducing drive belt wear etc.Braking strength is also programmable and will be set medium/soft.Interactive programing guide, Self diagnostics with fault code chart and replacement parts are available. This information link is provided in the box.Safe turn on system where the speed control knob must be in the full counter clockwise (stop) position when turned on. When turned on the self diagnostic system checks for faults and will not allow the motor to turn on until the speed control knob is turned all the way to stop first.Control unit has the ability to stop the motor or what ever it is turning in 2 different locations with external hall effect sensors not included.Use at your own risk. Our liability is limited to the purchase price of this item.Motor Specifications:Watt: 1500 (2 HP)Voltage: 110V - 120V single phase AC. (220 - 250V AC single phase is available by request)HZ: 60Torque: 16 N.M.RPM: 300 to 3,500 RPM in 100 RPM increments. Note: Manufacturer recommended 500 to 3,000 RPMs My personal testing results: This motor runs best between 400 and 3,500 RPMs.Spindle speed results in the test Smithy Granite: Note: these are the original calculations. Our test machinist is now reporting he never needs to change belts as he has the full range needed with just one belt position. I will update this when I get more information but one thing is for sure; The first machinist to operate the system in the images is absolutely thrilled with how quiet it is and how well it now performs. Not to mention his machine never bogs down now. Estimated low speed gear ratio is motor display divided by 0.6:300 RPM = 50 at spindle.400 RPM = 67 at spindle.500 RPM = 84 at spindle.700 RPM = 117 at spindle.900 RPM = 150 at spindle.1,200 = 200 RPM at spindle.1,500 = 250 RPM at spindle.1,800 = 300 RPM at spindle.2,100 = 350 RPM at spindle.2,400 = 400 RPM at spindle.2,700 = 450 RPM at spindle.3,000 = 500 RPM at spindle.3,500 = 583 RPM at spindle.Estimated high speed is easy. It’s 2 to 1. Divide the display by 21,000 = 500 RPM at spindle.2,000 = 1,000 RPM at spindle.3,000 = 1,500 RPM at spindle.3,500 = 1,750 RPM at spindle.Recent Feedback on this item: Thank you this is a great upgrade literally transformed my machine and is 10x better than original machine thank you for providing an affordable solution for motor and controls replacement This listing is for what is seen in the primary image. It will include printed programming instructions. It will take some skill to fit and install. Shipping: Ships USPS ground. Better yet and due to weight, consider FedEx home delivery.

Ask lots of questions before ordering: Do not worry about missing this item and thus buying it and than changing your mind after the fact. If you miss it, I will get more soon. Not only that, the new motors currently in manufacturing have longer wiring between the motor and controller. This will ease installation. Especially with the custom design control unit installation. Speaking of the custom control unit seen in the not included images: These kits will be available with the custom control unit in a few months. Unfortunately they will cost considerably more. If you are interest, ask through eBay.
