@phoenixengr- Good information(thanks)! I built my own SAMA, installing an original HW-19 motor, in a 16lb, solid slab of brass(base/adjusters/etc, added another few pounds), with just(barely) enough clearance for silicone heat sink compound. What are the dimensions of your 3 phase motor? I’m wondering if it’ll fit my SAMA housing, without further machining.
Roadrunner reapearance
I saw on the latest edition of Analog Planet on MF’s video of the show he attended that at the SOTA booth, they had a working product of the Roadrunner w/motor/pulley as a drop in for a VPI. Anyone here have more info or even better, have one in use? It was reported it is now a product for sale @ $1k. No mention of it on SOTA’s website.

@rodman99999- You can download the motor spec sheet here: https://sotaturntables.com/products/eclipse-package/ The mounting holes are nearly identical to the Hurst 59 series motor (within 40 mils on center). The motor has a ¼" shaft, but comes with an aluminum pulley and uses a flat belt rather than multiple round belts. |
