So I have decided to at least experiment with a servo motor. I know almost nothing about them. But I just got hold of four of them. By the date codes these were made in the late 1990's and pulled off working equipment. I've tried to Google the part numbers and looked at manufacturer's web sites but these are nearly 20 years old and no longer made and not in the archived manufacturer catalogs. One looks about NEMA34 size and 4.5" long, three others are about 2/3 that size and 1/2 the weight
Pulling the cover off an encoder I see three channels (rings) of slots on a thin stainless disk. One looks like it is for quadrature encoding and has over 1000 slots, one is an index and then there are some S-shape over lapsing holes. I know how to figure out encoders: Guess that two leads are power and look at the signals on the outers. But motor voltage, max current and torques? How to figure those out? -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
