Discontinued or long lead time? We'll find a replacement
Send us the part number, even a photo of the nameplate. Our engineers check the ratings, mounting and feedback and find a current equivalent or a drop-in alternative from across our supply network.

How it works
- Send the part number and what the part does on your machine. Nameplate photos and drawings help.
- An engineer checks the original: ratings, mechanical fit, connectors, feedback and approvals.
- You get options: the closest current equivalent, any changes needed, and availability, normally within one working day.
What we replace
Servo and stepper motors and drives, slip rings and rotary joints, electric actuators, gearboxes and strain-wave gears, encoders, and motion controllers. If it moves a machine, send it over.

Frequently asked questions
Can you find an equivalent for a discontinued servo drive or motor?
Usually, yes. Send the part number and, if you can, the nameplate details and how the part is used. An engineer will look for a current equivalent with the same mounting, ratings and feedback, or tell you what needs to change if there is no drop-in match.
What if the original part has a long lead time rather than being obsolete?
Tell us the lead time you have been quoted and when you need the part. We will check availability across our supply network and propose alternatives that meet the same specification, with their lead times, so you can choose.
Is there any charge for checking a replacement?
No. The engineering check and recommendation are free and there is no obligation to buy.
