This is a \u003cstrong\u003e230V export model\u003c\/strong\u003e intended for use in countries outside North America where 230V is the standard voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe M.LX is a 1\/10 HP permanent magnet ball bearing motor with a maximum speed of 5,000 RPM. It is the successor to the discontinued EE, R, and original L series motors, all of which were developed for the professional jewelry stone setter. Working at low speeds under heavy load demands a motor that delivers consistent torque without bogging down — the M.LX is purpose-built for exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe M.LX series is also well suited for use with hammer handpieces, such as the Badeco Swiss Made or Foredom 15-15D models, since hammer handpieces are designed to operate at lower speeds where this motor excels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMotors ship with a standard-length key tip shaft and a flexible neoprene sheath, compatible with quick-disconnect handpieces from Foredom and other manufacturers including Badeco, Faro, and Swiss Made Technique. Build your own custom flex shaft setup by adding a compatible speed control and selecting your preferred handpiece separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e The M.LX motor must always be used with a compatible speed control — never plug it directly into an outlet. The LX series requires dedicated LX-series speed controls (such as the TXR, SXR, or EMX). These motors run on DC current converted from AC by special electronics in the control unit. SR series controls are \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e compatible and cannot be modified or adapted for use with LX or TX series motors. The shielded plug on LX\/TX motors also differs from standard models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-torque, low-speed motor ideal for stone setting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/10 HP permanent magnet ball bearing motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum speed of 5,000 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuccessor to the discontinued EE, R, and original L series motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent for use with hammer handpieces designed for lower operating speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes standard-length key tip shaft and flexible neoprene sheath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with quick-disconnect handpieces from Foredom, Badeco, Faro, and Swiss Made Technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e230V export model for use outside North America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMotor Series\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForedom M.LX\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 compatible speed control)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V (export model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShaft Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard length, key tip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSheath Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNeoprene\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForedom M.LX motor (230V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard-length key tip shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible neoprene sheath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNotes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeed control is required for operation — never plug this motor directly into an outlet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible speed controls include the TXR, SXR, and EMX models designed for LX\/TX series motors.
