Customer Reviews for Power Feed Y-axis 135lbs 200rpm Torque For Bridgeport Type Milling Machine 110v

It works for my x axis ( I got the 450 in lbs one) it has enough power to move the table in and out. I had read that I would have to modify a bushing in other reviews. It would also be a simple matter to include a bushing for a Bridgeport. I have a lathe so it wasn't a big deal. I suppose that most people who have a mill also have a lathe but I'm also sure that not everyone does. It seems to maintain a constant speed so I really like it.

This is very easy to use, with the exception of shiming the two shafts. That took the longest time. So far it has worked flawless and far surpassed my exceptions. Would recommend this for anyone who needs a power feeder motor. Shipping was fast and very well documented.

I was able to make the power feed work on the "Y" axis, although it was made for the "X" axis. The instructions were useless and did not help at all. It would be very helpful if you have a lathe to make an adapter to have it work on the Y axis. Once you adjust the gear engagement ,it works fine..

Had minimum modifications and adjustments to fit in my milling machine, because it is a small mill. Once installed, perfect. Easy moves both sides, perfect synchromism. Thank you..... :o)

Had to make some mods. But other than that, works great !

lo compre hace un mes y realmente facil de instalar y rapido , muy buen funcionamiento y de buena calidad.

The product is good, but the install instructions are terrible. There are no instructions detailing how to measure the shims for proper adjustment. I installed mine on a Bridgeport mill with the old gear drive. The install requires you to modify the lead screw and cut new woodruff key seats. All in all, I’m pleased with the product, but the install is not a plun play.

I rebuild machines for a living and can say I have installed a lot of these power feeds over the years! This unit is well made for it’s crazy inexpensive price. When you consider the cost of the servo brand at almost $1,000 these work great easy to install

everything was fine except it didn't fit my jet milling machine

I read all the reviews on the power feed and understand some of the installation problems people described. These types of units never come with very good installation instructions so a little extra time needs to be spent finding the correct shim thicknesses to do it correctly. This unit is a replacement unit and it required a little work to get setup exactly as required. Most of the complaints I read appear to be related to how the unit was installed and it being noisy. From my experience installing several power feeds is that the noisier units weren’t shimmed correctly and had to be adjusted until they were installed correctly. Shimming is very important and if done correctly the unit will operate properly and be very quiet. My old WellSetting unit worked great but regardless of how I shimmed it it was noisy. It failed after about 20+ years of use in my shop. This new unit went on as I expected it to and is super quiet compared to the old unit. It has been on and used for several hours now and works flawlessly.. I just hope I get many good years if service out of it given it‘s a low priced unit. No complaints so far.
