I have a Smithy "Granite" Lathe/Mill/Drill Machine that came equipped with a Chinese electric motor.
The first electric motor lasted several years (until the warranty on the machine ran out) and then died. So, I ordered (and paid for it-$200.00) another Chinese made electric motor from Smithy and that one died out after about a month.
Then Smithy replaced the replacement Chinese motor free under warranty.
Well, after a couple of months, that replacement Chinese electric motor also died.....
I have had an electrician check my shop's wiring, and it is fine. The problem seems to be with those defective Chinese electric motors that Smithy sells.
CAN ANYONE PLEASE RECOMMEND A HIGH QUALITY, AMERICAN MADE ELECTRIC MOTOR (NAME, MODEL NUMBER AND WHERE TO BUY) I CAN INSTALL ON MY SMITHY 'GRANITE" LATHE/MILL/DRILL MACHINE THAT WON'T BURN OUT AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS?
I will greatly appreciate your recommendations based on your experience.
THANKS!!!!
