Anyone know the estimated service life of TEFC 1/2 hp induction motors in hours?
The motor in my Emco Maier Compact 8 (European made, AEG brand) is still going strong after about 1000 hours. I suppose the bearings would be the first to go as long as I haven't overloaded the motor (it's got a slip clutch to avoid that)--I'm just wondering because I have some light production work for it in the coming weeks, and don't want any surprises.
thanks,
