Has anyone ever changed from a step pulley under drive to a variator type variable speed in a 102? I may have found a source for the parts but I think my single speed motor would be a limitation as the original variable speed models were two speed motors.
Are all the cabinets the same (other than a hole for the handle) or do the variator models have other attachments added on (this is a sheet metal cabinet from 1969) I can't tell from the catalog pictures.
I know I could put a VFD on there and get variable speed but my shop is already running fully on 380V three phase and I like to keep the machines original when possible. I already have the same type of variable speed with my big lathe (135) with a two speed motor and back gear to get the full range and my mill (a Schaublin 13) which has a single speed motor but only goes up to 2000 rpm.
Merry Christmas
