Members Haley Posted August 9, 2012 Members Report Posted August 9, 2012 Hi guys, New to the leatherworker forum and was hoping to get some advice. I'm interested in shoemaking which is the reason I purchased this machine, The Juki LU 562 is the first leather sewing machine I've had, Wondering if there are any decent Servo motors I can get for around $100. This baby is rigged with a clutch motor and ready to rip through some upholstery work. Any other comments and advice would be helpful. Thanks! Quote
Members Sylvia Posted August 9, 2012 Members Report Posted August 9, 2012 Go to Ferdco.com and look at their closeouts. (They just shut down their business.. and are slowly clearing house) I think they have one that might work... You'll need to Email them and get a local number for them. Cheryl is the woman's name. (real nice gal.) but be warned... she lives 1 hour away from the old plant. Anyway... here is the advertized deal on their closeout servers Internet Specials - New DC Servo Motors 110V with adjustable speed settings - While they last - $89.00 plus Freight. Quote
Members ItsthatFLO Posted August 16, 2012 Members Report Posted August 16, 2012 I'm looking for a servo as well but I can't find my machine on there. Its a Chandler 26-188. It has a big clutch motor on it but it is much too fast for me. Any ideas? Quote

Members Sylvia Posted August 16, 2012 Members Report Posted August 16, 2012 Someone can correct me if I am wrong but I believe that any comparable horse power servo motor will work on your machine. Quote

You are right, they will bolt up in the same holes, however you may need to purchase a different belt if the pulley is of a different size. HTH Ken Quote
