How We Helped a Potter Save Money and Restore His Wheel
The Story Behind the Solution
We were contacted by a long-established potter after the motor failed on his potter’s wheel. He had already been quoted over £1,000 to repair or replace the existing motor. Quite frankly, it was a shocking figure and one that made replacing the wheel feel like the only option.
This is where Motor Control Warehouse stepped in.
We supplied a brand-new motor, along with a variable speed drive to control performance accurately and efficiently. A speed control pedal was also provided, giving smooth, responsive control of the wheel during use. Our technical team fully supported the setup process, ensuring the drive was configured correctly and running perfectly from day one.
A cost-effective from Motor Control Warehouse
Replacing a potter’s wheel is rarely cost-effective. Basic models can start at around £2,000, and specialist repairs quickly add up. At MCW, we support potters and craftspeople by extending the life of existing equipment. We supply reliable, energy-efficient components at competitive prices. The variable speed drive also reduces energy consumption, helping lower ongoing running costs.
The result was a delighted customer, a fully restored potter’s wheel, and significant savings.
