Unknown Rockwell Belt Grinder - Anyone have photos?

[Heezea]

Hey guys I was able to get this belt grinder at an auction. It is missing several pieces, including model number. Does anybody have any details on this model and a few example pictures for me to go off when rebuilding the missing components? It has a nice 3-phase motor but otherwise, it is as shown in the photos below, with various pieces missing.

I bet it's mostly just missing the sanding belts and some guards.

Hey @matthewsx, thanks, I did try googling first but I couldn't find an exact model. I saw the one you post and it has a ton of similarities. I think you're right that it's mostly guards but I thought if anyone has some better photos of the exact model it would be more helpful. I also am wondering if there is supposed to be some kind of plenum?

I found two similar ones, neither had a model number listed. It looks like they could be configured with one or two belts.

If it were mine I'd measure for and order a belt or two and make sure it's lubed then fire it up.

Guards would be nice but make sure they don't make it less safe....

If you want to spend some time going through various catalogues and stuff there is a ton of Rockwell sales literature and service manuals at Vintage Machinery
