We have a Grizzly G0759 with DRO and modifying with Power Feed and Power Lift. Grizzly has a Power Feed unit, which is OK (their brand) and the Power Lift they sell is Made by "Priest". The unit itself is very inexpressively made and under powdered for a lot of $$$. I install the unit today and the 12v DC motor worked, but the gear box did not. Going to send back to Grizzly for a refund.
The whole reason I purchased these power feed units was to cut back on time from designing and making my own power units and could just "Bolt On".
The Power Lift Unit is totally unacceptable (the 12v motor is only about a half dollar in diameter and 1 1/2" long).so I now need to manufacture my own. I figured that maybe someone on LRH has already made a Power Lift and has some information. I will most likely get a Stepper Motor, Gear reduction Box, and a Controller for AC to DC and variable speed Forward/Reverse.
AYNONE make their own Power Lift Unit for a Mill?????????
I just need an idea for motor, controller and gear reduction box. I can fabricate the mounts.
Thanks Much
