Quality


This spindle works perfectly for that purpose, and it can perform these functions at a great speed and accuracy.


I haven't measured runout but just by moving it by hand it's very solid and so far has cut flawlessly for me.


The controller board has a spindle motor output from 0 to 24volts and this motor controller needs a 0 to 10volt signal to control speed.

Price


One thing i would change is to lower the price to about $110 or so and only offer a few collets (1/8, 1/4, 5/16 and maybe a 4mm).

    Some 3040’s require a little bit bigger operation to swap out the spindle for a bigger motor than this


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    First i thought the spindle wasn’t running but then i noticed my speed pot was in the bottom third of its range at about 30


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This spindle runs so quietly i just didn’t hear it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After you turn it up past 50 you can hear it running


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I would say it’s at most 30 of the noise of the original drive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Actually it has about 66 more torque than my old 300 w spindle

    I wish i would have started with this drive
