Mike Knudsen's post in the 01.04.23 Digest mentions a company in
Wisconsin that makes motors for pinball machines. They make them for
all other applications as well.
In the years I had a large number of coin operated games, including
pinballs, I sent motors to the original manufacturer, Multi Products
in Racine, Wisconsin. They would rebuild a motor for much less than
I could buy replacements new from the manufacturer. Some units were
available only from the game manufacturer, but Multi Products has been
in business for a long time and they make most of the small motors for
the game industry. Here is their information:
Multi Products
5301 21st Street
Racine, WI 53406
tel: 262 554-3700
fax: 262-554-3711
We just sent in the old motors and they rebuilt them. Turnaround was
fast and the quality -- well, they made the motors in the first place!
They are very much still in business and are great people to deal with.
