In Reply to: Jim, Have you accessed the bearing? posted by Lew on November 30, 2011 at 10:25:30:
This light steel sleeve is pressed onto the hat and prevents the hat from pulling away from the motor assembly.
I tried to see if it could be easily removed. Removal would have destroyed its balance so I left it alone.
The bearing is considered a sealed design. There are no oiling provisions. You can hold the motor at any angle and zero oil escapes.
At speed it takes the platter nearly 3 minutes to come to a full stop when you pull the power. Its definitely an extremely low friction design and has zero wobble.
These motors are serious pieces. They are dramatically under-run. At full speed this motor has decent horsepower.
You would need both a heavier platter and run the motor closer to its design specs to achieve the kind of moment of inertia you can achieve with the SP 10 MKIII.
My ideal motor would be the SP-02 lathe motor. They are hard to come by ;-)
