Neumotor 8019 strip down
Well, in one of my last trips to the US I picked up a couple of Neumotor 8019 motors and very nice they are
The shafts are designed for collet mount and I wanted to put a pinion on with a keyway. Therefore I had to strip the motor down to get the shaft out.
I also wanted to see how the statement "The motors feature shafts that can be configured for both front or rear mounting." works and when I spoke to them they stated that
These are what they looked like initially

I then pulled them apart

The shaft is interesting. I was hoping for something simpler as it could do with being a bit longer for the pinion I have. Not feeling optimistic on that
You can see how the shaft bolts into the magnetic ring

The windings in all their glory. Could be a bit neater

The motor does have 2 bearings front and back made by NSK in Japan
The magnets have spacers but some epoxy would be handy
Oh, and I still cant figure the shaft out for reversing....

Ok, got a response from Neumotors
There is a reverse shaft :)

Did they mention a price?
-
No price (different department). Looking to find that out today. Ideally I want 2 plus a spare

The shaft isn't too complex. I'm sure any half decent machining outfit could make you a replacement fairly quickly.

Some times its just easier to buy parts if the price is right.
