Hi
The traditional tool post grinder has a separate motor and a belt driven spindle.
The modern spindle motors like this one Spindle Motor look like a simple path to a decent tool post grinder with minimal work. This is the link to the Jianken website
The concern I have is whether the RPM will be too high. The consequences would be that reducing the rpm would reduce power output. So operating a 2kW motor at half speed would expect to give half power.
What is the optimal rpm range for an external and internal grinding wheel?
