Are the mikita and Dewalt routers interchangeable for the workbee 1510 - do they use the same clamp system?
Can anyone recommend a spindle router, air or water cooled, in the 3-4 kw range and where to purchase one?
The 3-4kw range is far too heavy for the workbee 1510. Many users have posted the 800w spindle is pretty much ideal for the 1510 as it offers just the right amount of power. The 1510 will hold a 1.5kw but you may or may not get full use from it.
I am currently building a new 4x8 CNC Router based in-part on the workbee components (up-gunned) less the structure. I am at the stage of tuning up some of the manufactured parts but my Dewalt router gave up the ghost yesterday while milling some aluminum. I have a larger Bosch on the new table but I have not completed the manufacturing of some parts so I have ordered a new dewalt to do just that. My plan is to sell my 1510 to offset the cost of my new machine once it is operational. Hence, I am looking for an upgraded 3-4kw router spindle as the final upgrade to the project. Has anyone used one of these from RATTM Motors: Square 3KW Air Cooled Spindle motor ER20 18000rpm 300Hz 4 Bearings & 3kw VFD 220V Inverter for CNC Router Engraving Milling
