Conversion kit

Overview
The CLIMAX 1.5 kW and 3.1 kW servo motor conversion kits are bolt-on solutions to upgrade BB4500 and BB5000 line boring machines. Designed for shop and field use, the kits deliver consistent torque, smoother operation and finer surface finish across the full cutting range, enabling reliable machining for tight-tolerance applications and extended onsite work.

Key Features

• Bolt-on installation: converts existing line boring machines to servo-driven systems while preserving the base machine investment
• Power variants: available in 1.5 kW (110 V or 220 V single-phase) and 3.1 kW (220 V)
• Rugged components: IP67-rated servo motor and robust control enclosure for harsh environments
• Handheld pendant control: compact pendant with variable speed, directional control (CW/CCW) and simple start/stop
• Hands-free capability: allows operators to run equipment from a safe distance
• Portable power options: suitable for shop and field operations with included 5 m control and power cables (longer cable packs available)

3.1 kW Kit — Advanced Control Features

• Digital RPM display: shows exact bar speed for precise setup
• Integrated RPM calculation: computes optimal RPM from bore size and cutting speed
• Motor load indicator: real-time load feedback to maximize performance and prevent overload
• Calculated bar speed: automatic calculation to speed up accurate machine setup

Compatibility & Application

• Designed for CLIMAX BB4500 and BB5000 line boring machines to maximize BB4500 capacity and optimize BB5000 mid-range performance
• Built for both workshop and field environments where reliable, repeatable machining is required
