    Default More Motor Madness GE Slip Ring Motor

    G'day All
    Picked up another motor from my contact. Intially asked if he could keep any flat belt pulleys he came across before he scapped any motors or equipment. After seeing it after it had been pulled out it was to interesting to scrap. I had seen this motor in postion it used to drive a small line shaft setup for a printing shop, missed out on the starter for the motor went to the scrap man last week. However I will be picking up the line shafting tomorrow.

    Cheers Hugh

    Recently got back from a holiday in Japan and thought I'd share some of the oldies from the Toyota Museum of Industry and Technology.

    40hp Siemens-Schukert. This probably ran the entire shaft drive system for the cotton mill (where Toyota began, as Toyoda)

    GE and Westinghouse from the metalworking side of Toyota
