Motor

Both motors (drive, osc) were identical

PITTMAN
GM8712-41
19.1 VDC
187:1 RATIO
MFG 05-29-98 S

33 and 17 ohm. Is one of these damaged? Why are their resistances so different?

Tried testing under load

  • black goop
    • 12.19 V @ 1.266 A (current limited)
    • 8 ohm after
  • other
    • Initially drawing way less current than first
      • 12.12 V @ 0.332 A (voltage limited)
    • then started smoking
      • 11.68 V @ 1.248 A (current limited)
    • 6 ohm after

Aren't these rated 19.1 V? Am I misunderstanding?


Try pinning out the spare bad head

  • 1-5: 2.8 k
  • 2-6: 147 R
  • weird...


what does the secondary machine test? (believe good)

  • 1-5: 9.0 R
  • 2-6: 10.4 R


What is max voltage allied puts out on motors?

  • 1-5
    • 7.6 (fixed)
    • osc
  • 2-6
    • 15.0 (max)
    • drive


Head connector

Head plug

  • 4x2 (8 pins)
  • 3 mm pitch
  • Head female, cable male
  • Maybe Minitek Pwr™ 3.0 Series

Motor on mini-DIN

  • 1: drive motor +
  • 3: drive motor -
  • 7 V

  • Win cross sectioning kit


2020-02-20

  • Order sample holder
  • Order replacement tubing
    • Later found I had some spare, but meh can use for other projects


Primary

S/N 568


Hermitage: Allvia Sunnyvale? Not sure if they are still in business


2019-12-19

  • Submitted offer. Negotiations failed


2020-02-19

  • Seller accepted offer (was firm at old offer). Local pick up


2020-02-232

  • Swap DRO from spare to primary machine
  • Replace rusted micrometer


2020-02-23

  • Observe osc motor is not moving
  • Observe osc doesn't have slit like spare to keep in place...how is it supposed to work?
    • Is this a DRM thing of sort where they didn't supply the right adapter if the user didn't purchase osc option?
    • ie the motor was intentionally disabled and also mechanically hindered

Spare

???

  • Won a few lots of parts TechPrep heads
  • Goal: combine into one good head and mount on SBT machine


2019-03-20

  • Try to get old TechPrep base. Negotiations failed


2019-12-20

  • Won old TechPrep base machine. Change plan from retrofitting SBT machine to actually fitting on this machine
  • Without reference machine a little difficult to piece together
  • Machine filthy. Significant cleaning


2020-02-23

  • Used reference machine to greatly accelerate repairs
  • Made cable to hook up head
  • E1.43 (error code?) persists, but machine seems to work fine
