The motors used on the LittleMachineShop.com mini lathes and mini mills are 230V motors.

?

The motor on Alibaba is a 48V motor. Besides the voltage being correct, be sure to check the physical dimensions.

?

SIEG makes those motors at their factory in Shanghai so they may not be standard.

I was looking into getting one of these motors for another project a while ago and found this:

?

I’m not sure if it will work, and I did not buy one yet but thought I’d pass this on to you as a possibility.

?

I wasn’t happy with the replacement cost from either Micro-Mark or LMS.

Hi group

?

I have a 5200 LMS lathe, and I think the motor is gone.

It need a manual twist ?to run and the motor make a lot of noise.

?

Sometimes ago the motor make a lot of noise, and I took out the rotor.

The axel under the bearing was very worn, I did something and it has worked ok until today.

?

A new LMS 4145? 500 Watt Brushless DC motor will cost me 350/400 USD.

So before I order, I ask my group :

is it possible to get a new motor that can replace and fit to my 5200 lathe ?

?

350/400 USD Is nearly 1/3 of a new lathe? :-)

?

If someone have some experience with this motor or similar , you are welcome to give me some advice.

?

Best regards
