Members onathread Posted March 10, 2017 Members Report Posted March 10, 2017 I know I've been all over the place with my questions , but, here go's! Which digital servo motor would work best with my 227r. Would love to be able to take a stich at a time!! Appreciate the help from all of you! I know Cobra has a couple to choose from as well. Again, Thank You! ) Quote
Members Yetibelle Posted March 10, 2017 Members Report Posted March 10, 2017 Ahh the tricky Servo motor question - how slow can you go? Well I can't comment on the "digital part", but the Sew Green 550 servo motor I use has a dial on it that drops the speed down or up. If you want the one-stitch-at-a-time control, you will want to install a speed reducer along with the servo motor. this will let you bring the machine to a crawl. You can get really slow with the servo alone, but it takes a little practice with the foot. There are digital systems that I assume replace the knob with a digital number. I have been happy with this motor and no speed reducer. Quote
Members onathread Posted March 10, 2017 Author Members Report Posted March 10, 2017 Hi YetiBelle! That's the one I have, and I feel like I'm a good operator, but I've seen machines do that one stitch at a time. would love that for top stitching! Then that's probably all I need, is a speed reducer! Thx so much! Going to check it out! ) Quote
Members Yetibelle Posted March 11, 2017 Members Report Posted March 11, 2017 The speed reducer is just a pulley that mounts in between the motor pully and the machine. So you will need that and a second belt. http://www.techsew.com/parts-supplies/sewing-accessories/speed-reducer.html Quote
Members onathread Posted March 11, 2017 Author Members Report Posted March 11, 2017 I believe you're right!! The servo I have works fine, but, I would like to reduce the speed on my servo a little more. I can't Thank You enough for your help! I might go ahead and order this pulley. If I can change the wax ring on a toilet, I can put this on! LOL Thank You for the link! ) I hope you have a wonderful weekend! ) Quote
