-Yes, and I recommend it. The only potential issue that I see is you might need a larger VFD.
Keep in mind that Thermite is one of those types that if the machine doesn't weigh at least six tons and you have to remove chips with a grain shovel, it's not a "real" machine. Ignore him, most of us do.
Regardless of the parentage of that machine, it's easily beefy enough to take a 3HP motor, and if you already have the motor, so much the better.

To the original poster: See? Tol'ja.

Pphtt... "ignore" at the expense of avoidable holes in your bank account if you are feeling so overly rich.
"Beefy" my ass. Another amateur Ingineer weighs in.
Better look again. Closer.
Overpower that lasagna-noodle two-to ONE over factory OEM (they KNEW what they had .... and what they did NOT have..) and it will be the remains of its gearing and compound rest hitting the grain shovel. Planting bustid gears in the back garden won't grow new gears, either.
A basic white-bread Logan, Rockwell, Standard-Modern, or trade-school-trainer Colchester is stronger built.
Why TF do yah suppose they are as common as housefly poop and this critter is so rare? "Commercial success" in the market, or NOT so successful come to mind?
Check the carriage width - or the lack of same - just for openers.
Don't confuse it with a Hwacheon nor a LeBlond Regal just because it has a lot of rectangular shapes to it.
3 HP don't sound like MUCH. But it is DOUBLE what this puppy was borned with.
Same-same RPM, that means double the torque.
Whom d'you suppose made the gears, out of what alloy, and with what heat-treat?
Might it be "Tight, Low Ball, Budget & Company"? They surely sell a lot of cheap stuff to OEM's.
Damned shame their replacement parts have to be made by hand outta locally-sourced unobtanium.
Folks who drop big-block V8's into Honda Civic chassis to make "funny cars" do NOT retain the OEM 4-banger's transmission & differential, do they?

You don't know what you're talking about. Best, "gordon".
