(Ship from USA) Genuine Consew CSM1000 Servo Sewing Machine Motor 3/4HP CS1000 CSM550 SM550-1PLKHG484UY5151

Holy cow! This is so much better than using a clutch motor. And really quiet .I used it with a Consew 225 and it was so easy to install. Highly recommend!

My motor arrived at 3:16. It is 4:49, and I have just finished sewing off on garment leather, nylon webbing, and 9-10 oz Latigo. The time includes testing the motor before I installed it, removing the old motor of course, and I have never installed a motor before (always bought full packages, assembled and delivered).So as a total motor neophyte (but pretty good with tools), and zero instructions on mounting included, it is humming (well, not humming!) along and performing far better than my expectations. Everything fit in perfectly, bolts all reached where they should, and the linkage has more than enough adjustment for my machine (Consew 206RB). A socket and crescent wrench set (you can skip the socket, but it does save some time), a Phillips screwdriver, and, preferably an electric drill for pilot holes, is all you need. The holes in the table aligned perfectly, and you only have to install two screws in a new spot for the control box.The machine chugs a bit on the heavy leather, but it never stalled, even at a very slow speed. Ramp the speed up a bit and it sews that leather as well as did my clutch motor.One tiny nit to pick, I would much rather have a dial speed adjustment than the push button. I would be sewing the leather slowly, but the nylon much faster, and I switch back and forth a lot, so the button pressing (or pressing and holding, and holding, and holding) is going to get old. But for the price, and quiet (that is SO nice) and the performance at this price, I'll push a button.As one other person said, don't think about it, just buy it. If you're on a clutch motor it is like you just left the stone age.More info: I have had this in daily operation for about two months. It still performs flawlessly, and my electric bill seems to have dropped about $7.00 a month, and I cannot attribute it to anything other than not having a clutch motor going all day. So, in a couple of years, this will have been free!

I love this servo motor much more than the clutch motor it replaced. It only weigs about 5 lbs and replace the old mother weighing about 50 lbs One of the reviews stated it would go from zero to 4500 rpm, but that is incorrect. It can be set as low as 500 rpm and as high as 4500. When set to something, the pedal will start it and some more pedal goes a little faster. I never tried the pully that came with it as I also ordered a 45 mm pully at the same time. For installation, find a video online as it comes with no instructions. A peeve of mine is that I thought I was ording the Consew brand when in fact it just the same unit as others that are lower priced. I could have saved $30 by just ording from a different vendor. Still happy with the purchase though.

Bought this for my mothers Singer 251-12 lock-stitch, her "go to" machine. She was a professional tailor/seamstress for over 35 years and has had some high end clients and done all sorts of crazy projects (till she retired having her own business) and always used a clutch motor. She has one of those "if it works, don't fix it" attitudes. I installed this as a surprise for her and she has zero regrets dumping the clutch motor. For her application I had to get a 40 inch belt which was smaller than what the old motor used (yours might vary). The motor was a direct bolt in, just had to trim one of the carriage bolts to clear the motor. She says she has a lot more control over the machine at low speeds, it also sews a lot faster than the clutch motor, and not having to hear the constant noise of the clutch motor is a huge plus. Hope this helps someone with their decision. If there are any problems, I'll post them here.

I needed an option to upgrade the 120W, 22 year old Taig micro mill motor. This was perfect!Going from 120W to 550W was awesome. Having a variable speed control is excellent. Loosing 600grams in the process was the great too!I had to modify the pully to fit my smaller v-belt. Anyone with a lathe should have the skill to do this. The final drive ratio was about 2:1 so my spindle runs twice as fast as the motor. This brings my max measured spindle speed to almost 10K, the limit. Perfect.I also replaced the lever control with a 5k ohm potentiometer. I turn the controller on and turn up the dial to the speed I need. Twice the reading is about my spindle speed.Also, the controller I got was not the one pictured. It was the one I expected/hoped for based on other pictures of this part number.

I bought this to use on a Taig micro lathe. It works great for this, but after about a month mine started having weird issues. It would suddenly stop out of the blue, and show the "motor stall" error. Called Consew on the phone and the support rep was useless, cut me off mid sentence and said "if you bought it from Amazon you will have to take it up with Amazon." Just to make sure, I asked "you don't provide any support for these products at all?" and she said "no."Emailed the seller, who was at least polite, but said they couldn't actually do anything since these products are all stored/shipped at an Amazon warehouse.Finally talked to Amazon, who agreed to let me do a return, but I'd have to return the motor, VFD, and foot control (the whole set) rather than just the VFD. I didn't really want to do this since I'd already gone to a lot of trouble custom-fitting the motor to my lathe. So I opened the VFD and discovered that the PCB screws were loose and it didn't seem to be making a good ground. Also had a couple cracked solder joints.I fixed all that, and it works like a charm now. But I won't ever purchase a Consew branded motor again, I'll just find the cheapest importer out there, since there's zero advantage to paying for the Consew name. I suggest you do the same.
