Re: Globe Motors

I have an additional question relative to the globe motors, sorry its not related to the above post but does anyone know how they handle direct drive cantilevered loads.

I understand cantilevered loads aren't usually in good practice, but it might be slightly unavoidable in this situation, and I was wondering how that bronze bushing holds up under load. Also without wanting to pull it apart, is there another bushing/bearing inside the motors planetary gearbox or is the one viewable the only one?
