Question is, we all have seen Baldor on recent machines as well so is that an option or are those alternativly being used as a normal practice? There must be a price difference between the WEG and the Baldor. I have seen a 2x72 Baldor operate and the operation is completely amazing in smoothness, quietness etc.
@AmeriBradeOfficial14 күн бұрын
Hey @garth2011, We use WEG and Baldor, WEG is a great brand. However at the current time we are using stirckly Baldor. If you want to make sure you get a certain brand motor, give us a call and we can make sure it goes out with what you want
@Garth201114 күн бұрын
Interesting information however, there doesn't seem to be much information about the motors that are used such as the brand and why including any options and choices in motor brand, cost etc.
@AmeriBradeOfficial14 күн бұрын
Hey Garth, we use the best motors we can find and we keep 2 suppliers so we dont repeat the troubles of the 2020 shortages. As of this reply Baldor motors are leaving with every order and we are keeping weg on backup incase baldor has a slip in production.

is there a way to run the classic frame on reverse for sharpening if you have a vfd motor ?
@AmeriBradeOfficial3 ай бұрын
The motor is capable of being set up to run in reverse by adding a simple switch to the speed controller, but the tracking isn't responsive. If you're only using it for sharpening, precision tracking may not be crucial, so you might get away with it. Give the drive wheel several spins in reverse by hand to see if the belt tracks good enough for your standards. If you're happy with it, we can get you a reverse switch.

Would an 8” contact wheel work for flat grinding?
@AmeriBradeOfficial4 ай бұрын
Yea, it would accomodate an 8" wheel as well. The 4" wheel that comes with the machine is an extra 1/2" wider than standard for grinding wider pieces though, so a standard 2" wide 8" diameter wheel would limit you to 2 inch wide pieces.

Deflector rubber coated wheel with the 36 grit grinding on it continuously is going to last about 1 month.
@AmeriBradeOfficial6 ай бұрын
you would think so, but with proper alignment, they actually last a really long time under heavy use. We have customers that use them all day every day for at least a year before needing to be replaced. Just like tires on asphalt. They just roll along with the grit. Now if the machine isn't straight and the belt is scrubbing along the wheel, they would get eaten up quick.

Have you tried using this to do main grinds in knife making? looks like you could clamp the handle part and do main grinds pretty easy.
@AmeriBradeOfficial6 ай бұрын
Theoretically you could, but there are a couple things that make it not ideal. Main bevels should usually be at smaller angles than the clamp can do without hitting the belt. But, if you're hollow grinding, that helps because the wheel curves away from hitting the clamp. The second thing is just how securely the clamp holds the blade. It's plenty secure for the light work of sharpening, but may end up moving a bit if you're doing heavy grinding. But, if you're careful, its possible to keep it in position.
