Stone setters rely on low-speed operation under load, and the M.LX delivers with a permanent magnet ball bearing motor rated to a maximum of 5,000 RPM. Unlike motors that bog down under pressure, the LX Series maintains consistent torque even at reduced speeds — making it equally well suited for use with hammer handpieces, which are also designed to operate at lower speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe M.LX Series requires dedicated speed controls and is not compatible with Foredom SR Series controls.\u003c\/strong\u003e The LX and TX series motors are permanent magnet ball bearing motors that run on DC current. The C.TXR-2 and related TXR, SXR, and EMX controls include special electronics that convert AC current from a wall outlet to the DC current required by LX and TX series motors. These controls also feature a shielded plug specifically designed to fit the LX and TX motor connection — they cannot be adapted to or from SR series controls, despite a similar appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandpieces and accessories are sold separately.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-torque, low-speed motor engineered for professional jewelry stone setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/10HP permanent magnet ball bearing motor — maximum 5,000 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuccessor to the discontinued EE, R, and original L series Foredom motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains torque under load at low speeds — ideal for stone setting and hammer handpiece use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC.TXR-2 foot control provides variable speed operation via plastic housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial electronics convert AC wall current to DC current required by LX series motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShielded plug and connector designed exclusively for LX and TX series motor compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e230V configuration for international use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMotor Model\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM.LX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot Control Model\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eC.TXR-2 (Part #134.192-230V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHorsepower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/10 HP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5,000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMotor Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePermanent magnet ball bearing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCurrent Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDC (converted from AC via foot control electronics)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFoot Control Housing\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpeed Control Compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLX and TX series only — not compatible with SR series controls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM.LX 1\/10HP 230V Permanent Magnet Low-Speed, High-Torque Motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC.TXR-2 230V Variable Speed Foot Control in Plastic Housing (Part #134.192-230V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNotes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandpieces and accessories are sold separately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not attempt to use SR series speed controls with this motor.
