Techsew Ron Report post Posted September 4, 2015 Is there an option for a brush vs servo motor when purchasing these machines? Most dealers will include an adjustable speed Servo motor with the machine - they make the machine much easier to use for beginners. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted September 4, 2015 Let me be clearer. Servo motors can be brush type or brushless. The brush type are in my opinion better. They have better low speed torque, and have only one control or setting and that is for the maximum speed of the motor. Brushless motors also have a setting for this, but it is far more complicated than the brush type that have basically a knob for adjustment. On this forum, we often have requests for directions for setting the speed on brushless servo motors. We never have a request for setting the maximum speed on a brush type servo motor, no need, it is a simple knob, clockwise for faster, ccw for slower.
