    To clarify a couple of email questions about the NEMA23 belt reduction units:

    Can be seen in motion here: https://youtu.be/7AAq8SpJT-w at a minute, 16 seconds into the video.

    Note: This is a previous version that did not use the ShopBot RBK I/O board that is no longer produced. Many of the components and for sure the belt reduction units are the same. The I/O board has been upgraded to the RBK version to enable added function and safety features.

    I am now happy to announce that due to volume and favorable purchasing agreements with suppliers that the base price for the REZurrection Control System has been lowered by $100 to $1695. Option pricing unchanged.

    We also are now able to provide new, latest model ShopBot Controller cards with these systems should you desire one. Customers that order a new controller card with their system will receive a $100 discount on the assembled and tested system

    Customers that have an old controller card to turn in will receive an additional $100 credit for it.

    To clarify a number of emails, that if you have any one of the PC chassis based systems, the basic REZurrection system replaces it and retains all original function. There will also be additional functions (from the RBK I/O board): more inputs and outputs (up to 12) and control for 2 spindles and/or routers. Spindle control logic (on/off) is built in. If you wish to have router control (on/off) the router contactor is required.

    None of the other options are required unless you wish to add additional features.

    I am adding a belt drive product for PRS standard models to the REZurrection line. This will allow pre RBK PRS standard users to take advantage of the features of ShopBot's newest safety features and control enhancements by our utilization of the RBK I/O board and its compatibility with the latest generations of SB controller cards.

    This system will also allow use of more modern digital drives and motors resulting in a substantial increase in cutting speeds, rapids and cut quality over the 4G.

    This is a perfect upgrade for those that have put a lot of miles on the old gearboxes during frequent use, or have had a production requirement that is higher than when the machine was purchased.

    For NEMA 23 nongeared motors (3/8 shaft): $325 ea with 350 ozin motor: $400

    For NEMA 23 nongeared motors (3/8 shaft): $325 ea with 500 ozin motor: $420

    For NEMA 34 nongeared motors (1/2 Shaft): $350 ea with 600 ozin motor: $450

    Other combinations, including custom configurations, are available.

    An omission from the previous post: When purchased with a matching control system, deduct $50 each ($200 total for set of 4) from any of the above belt drive prices.

    As a current owner of these belt boxes and motors I can say that it's an excellent upgrade.
