Executive-level Comm Lathe for Accurate Motor Profiling

The HUDY 101501 Executive Automatic Commutator Lathe is intended for RC tuners who demand accurate, repeatable commutator machining. Its automatic feed and sturdy construction support consistent finishing work on performance motors.

Design Highlights and Guide Setup

This model uses a middle shaft belt drive to minimise vibration and ensure smoother cutting. Ultra-hardened steel "V" guides teamed with plastic armature clips give reliable axial positioning and reduce wobble during profiling.

Specifications

  • Drive System: Middle shaft belt drive configuration
  • Material: Black hard-anodized coating with ultra-hardened steel V guides
  • Tool Movement: Ultra-fine pitch lead screws for precise movement
  • Power Source: 12V DC power supply
  • Included Accessories: Slave motor, gearbox, electronics, switch, connection cable, fuse overload protection, anti-vibration pads, carrying case, drive belts, shims, anti-vibration washer, hex-wrenches
  • Cutting Tool: Not supplied (Diamond Cutting Tool #101081 advised)

Micrometric Feed and Zero Backlash

With an adjustable backstop screw and speed regulation you can make precise automated cuts. The feed screw carries fine pitch threading and an engraved ID so each graduation equals 0.01 mm, enabling micrometric adjustments without backlash.

Pack Contents and Optional Support Unit

The package includes anti-vibration pads and a carry case to protect the unit. For users needing extra axial rigidity, the HUDY Axial Support (#101901) is available as an optional accessory.

For committed hobbyists and small workshop users, the HUDY 101501 Executive Automatic Comm Lathe brings controlled, repeatable commutator finishing to everyday motor work.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some HUDY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 8-12 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

What electronics are required to run the lathe?

The lathe runs from a 12V DC supply and includes the essential electronics and switch, so no additional control modules are needed for basic operation.

How do I achieve repeatable commutator depths?

Use the fine-pitch feed screw and its engraved graduations to make measured passes; set the backstop and use the same speed settings for each cut to ensure repeatability.

Is there recommended lubrication for the lead screws?

A light machine oil applied sparingly to the lead screws will keep motion smooth without attracting excess debris; avoid heavy greases that can gum up the threads.

Will this lathe handle high-turn modified armatures?

Yes, it is designed to handle modified armatures when correctly mounted, but take care with clamping and cutting depth to preserve commutator integrity.

Where can I source spare belts and accessories?

Spare drive belts and common accessories are available from HUDY dealers and specialist RC retailers; keep spares on hand to reduce downtime.
