Saterday 10th january I picked up my newly acquired drill-press and brought it home.
It is fabricated in Germany Leipzig on 10 november 1920.
The specifications are:
MK 4 cone, 8 speeds from 313 to 9 rpm.
It has auto feed of 0.14/0.26/0.45 mm/rpm.
Totday I got it cleaned and gave it a good inspection.
I noticed some faults. No big ones but they do need attention.
The motor is a 2 hp 1400 rpm 3 fase 220/380 volts motor set at 380 volts. It sits on a cradle wich seems to be attaged at a later date. The motor is not a German motor but a Belgium motor.
The driven axle is at the bottom oof the machine and is supparted by two bearings. On top of these bearings is a small triough which the axle is greased. The top axle also hase to simular bearings. There is only one door at hand. The other three will have to be made.
After the first cleaning a dissasambled the engine cradle. It is going to be discarded.
I will make a new cradle and mount the engine on top of the axle. So it will take not more place then needed.
Next I disasambled the engine. When spinning it arround there was a grinding noise, the bearings are gone (lack of oil in the last years of use). The bearings are a 6205 and a 6204 I will get them tomorrow so I can put the engine back together.
The flat belt that was on it was cut when I disassembled the drill for transport. I already have a new one.
The electrical switch is an old one and will be discarded. I will mount a new one with some more safety features so i can operate it in a safe manner.
The cables that went from the switch to the engine is an old cable it has insulation with some kind of fiber, rubber and led, it will be replaced.
I will post an update as soon as possible.
Bye for now.
