replace plastic gear on powerfeed
I've got a stripped spot on my bridgeport powerfeed. Its a plastic gear
about 3.58" O.D. Not a standard tooth form, some sort of inline worm gear. See these dropbox pics: http://www.metalworking.com/dropbox/...ottom_view.JPG http://www.metalworking.com/dropbox/..._side_view.JPG Any chance of purchasing this gear? Or is the powerfeed "maintenance free", buy another when it breaks. If I had a manual for this, I lost it. My bridgeport gets nearly 0 use, but I HATE running anything without powerfeed. Karl |

This drive was almost certainly made by Servo Products
(http://www.servoproductsco.com/) you can probably get the part from them. -- Bob (Chief Pilot, White Knuckle Airways) "Karl Townsend" remove .NOT to reply wrote in message ink.net...

My manual for the AL/CE 235, AL/CE 250 lists the big gear as E-0934--4
(ZYTEL GEAR WITHOUT HUB), E-0934 being the whole gear and hub assembly. Hope that may be of some use. You've got me worried now, how old was you unit.

But I'll bet "The Kid", or one of his accomplices, tried to run the powerfeed with the gibs locked. It only takes once. Karl |

Yep, 110% china made. Align brand......I sent Align an email over 2 weeks ago, actually sent 3 of them total looking for a dealer that sells their powerfeeds, and have yet to get a reply.......lots of luck in getting a part. I did notice that a lot of the import brands of power feeds come supplied with an "Extra" nylon/delrin/plastic gear just incase it is ever needed.....
