Industrial-grade powe. An electric motor that can do a lot of different things.
It has a range of speeds from 10,000 to 22,000 RPM. There are 15 Amps and 120 Volts.
With this motor, you can use it with a variety of router lifts that are sold separately. It has a diameter of 4 14 inches.
Precision NSK deep groove ball bearings are completely shielded so that they run smoothly, last longer, and don’t run out of bits as quickly as other types of bearings.
The set comes with two offset wrenches with soft grip handles.
Start up with a soft start design to avoid sudden power surges.
For the price, this is a great deal.
The Portamate Industrial router motor is a great deal for what you pay for it, and it’s very quiet. You get a powerful 3 14 HP motor, variable speeds from 10,000 to 22,000 RPM, and shaft bearings made by NSK. This means you’ll be able to use this tool for a long time, with very little bit run out. It will fit in many router lifts, and the speed control is completely sealed for safety and can keep going even when there is a lot of pressure on it. For use with router lifts or CNC machines that use a router motor with a 4-1/4″ diameter, this router motor comes with extra pins that allow it to be used with standard 3-1/4 HP router motor bases as well. You also get two different-sized socket wrenches and a one-year warranty with this set of tools. For the price, this is the best.
This router was put in a Woodpecker table. When it was used for 30 minutes, the power went out briefly, then it came back on again. When it was under a lot of stress, it would do that every 5 to 30 seconds. I called customer service and they told me to take it apart and look for loose wires. There were no wires that were loose.
There, then, they asked for a video of the router when it was not working well. Set it up and let the machine do its thing. I already took the thing off the table. About 80 seconds after there was no load, something went wrong. In 2.5 minutes, it did it three times and did it again. In 12 days, they didn’t answer. I wish I had read all the bad reviews before I bought this garbage. For too long, I’ve had it. Amazon can’t take it back from me now.
if I ever get a replacement for PortAMate, I’ll put it on eBay and sell it.
