One of the main questions we get asked when ordering
controller systems when keeping existing machines is if it is a foot for flange
mount motor. When I first started
ordering equipment I had no idea what the difference between them was and said “what’s
the difference, put the order through and we will figure it out”. Well there is a big difference, I learned
this the hard way after many visits to a building getting the different pieces
of information. Nothing ground breaking here, just some information on the difference between the two traction motors.
Foot mounted motors - As the name describes, this motor has feet it sits on. This motor is an interesting motor with what looks like a fan on top.
Flange mounted motors - This is mounted with a flange and sticks on the machine, there are no feet.
Flexible couplings - This is a huge time saver and will improve ride quality. If you don't know what this is, check it out! Electrical Motor Repair company has a pretty good product to help with the installation of new motors.
