I saw an ebay ad for a pmi servo disk motor:

This reminded me of a box of these that I have gathering dust on a
shelf. I think they are the exact model in the auction, 60V,
something like 8.8 amps loaded current, 60 amps peak with some insane
peak torque rating.

I had never really considered using these for cnc (bought them for a
battlebot back before you could buy battlebots at mcdonalds). Right
now I use only gecko g320 (340) drives in my cnc mill, so I would
want to control this motor with a g320. This would be the motor on
my fourth axis project (converting a 10 inch phase II rotary table).
Has anyone used this motor with a gecko drive? Does it perform well?

Thanks,

Rick
