P.s.  10p compressors are the round case stuff, common on everything for about 30 years!  Lots of them in the junk yard.

   GM called them their A-6 compressor. Made by Frigidaire.

Payout for a coil stock roll is generally done with a loop and a switch. When the coil loop triggers the switch the motor feeds until it comes off the switch.

This has a horizontal switch on the right feeding what is probably a coil straightener, then a vertical switch feeding the machine.

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

That's similar to what we are doing, paying out 1 coil at a time. Right now, the prox switch turns the drive mot for the payout platter on and off. I'd like to let the motor run full time, and just cycle the clutch.

My guess is that the photo is of a servo drive system for a punch press.

Previous post should have said "motor", not "mot".
