    Rpm Sensor (missing)

    That's very nice of you but I am looking for a 12 volt sensor as it is wired through my VFS.

    Rpm Sensor (missing)

    There is no manual for the 45m, I did contact them and they said he 9xxx is almost the same.

    Rpm Sensor (missing)

    Yes, but in all honesty I hate asking a supplier something like that ... because most likely I will find it elsewhere les expensive. I don't want to fish for info (unless I am stuck) just to buy it somewhere else. I am also not for sure if this rpm was an add on or bought from PM.

    Rpm Sensor (missing)

    Thought of that, but this RPM sensor is wired through the VSF so I don't know if it is specific to the number of teeth on the reluctor.

    Rpm Sensor (missing)

    Hello people. I just purchased my first mill, PM-45M. It's going to take some work to put it in shape. This mill will have a complete service this winter but I thought I would look for some parts right away. The machine has a VFS and a RPM display, but the RPM sensor is gone - suspected...

    I don't like Mondays, but I really really hate post long weekend Tuesdays.

    I hear you 100%. The service industry has gone and will never come back.

    Reproducing feed arm

    Ok I get this, more complicated then it looks, but I understand better the process. I guess I will look into repairing this part better. Thank you Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk

    Reproducing feed arm

    Getting one cast is an option that I informed about, people related to the foundries seemed to think I needed to find someone in a private shop (at home or whatnot) because full scale foundries won't look at a small project like mine. I was thinking of getting it casted from Iron but I can't see...

    Reproducing feed arm

    This would definitely be an option, .75 or even .5 would work as I would be making a spring pin anyway (depending on stabilityof the arm on shaft). Rounding the edge by 45° is perfect, I was willing to smooth out stuff by hand. My hopes were to give the good arm to a guy/shop that has a hand...

    Reproducing feed arm

    This is what I am leaning to, I have a Tig but I just bought it so I would need some help on a brass silicone weld. I will take another picture when I get to the shop later, this arm has more than one joint with makes it sloppy as hell. Thanks for the input Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk
