Can a needle positioner be used on a brushed servo motor?

Recommended Posts

I have a Yamata FY5318 and I want to install a needle positioner.  My servo motor has brushes.  Does this matter on the positioners that mount on end of handwheel?

“No” is the short answer, I’m afraid.

The controller of your servo motor has to support a needle position device, otherwise you can’t use it. If your motor does not have a controller, you’re out of luck in terms of needle position options. Brushed servo motors generally do not have a controller.

I was afraid of that since all positioners mentioned brushless.  Thanks
