Open vs enclosed motor for a belt sander
Just wondering if anyone in the group has any experience with or
thoughts on using an open motor for a belt sander. This will be a home-brew sander, probably belt-driven, so I may be able to protect the motor to some extent, but not completely. Should I anticipate a quick death for an open motor in this application, or could I expect just a slightly shortened life span? Would a TEFC motor be worth the extra bucks? Thanks. Bert |
