There are no marks of the brand or origin. The unit is made of cast iron and brass, it even comes with tiny oil ring bearings, which I have never seen before on such a small dynamo. Is there anybody who can indentify this unit ? Any info is highly appreciated. Maurice.

Unfortunately, I too have no idea who the manufacturer is. #Post#: 47041-------------------------------------------------- Re: Old dynamo / motor By: skeptic49 Date: November 30, 2021, 5:37 am --------------------------------------------------------- Nice! I like the way it is painted. Never seen one before. #Post#: 47043-------------------------------------------------- Re: Old dynamo / motor By: mauricedelaat Date: November 30, 2021, 7:52 am --------------------------------------------------------- It looks very much like the way Jean schoenner painted his machines, but there is nothing to be found on the internet. I have bought this dynamo on ebay and it came from France. The build quality is extremely good, and the oil ring bearings are amazing. Regards, Maurice. #Post#: 47056-------------------------------------------------- Re: Old dynamo / motor By: SolingerStahl Date: November 30, 2021, 4:47 pm --------------------------------------------------------- LAHMEYER used to build similar motors for MARKLIN... Maybe he possibly also built for SCHOENNER...? #Post#: 47075-------------------------------------------------- Re: Old dynamo / motor By: mauricedelaat Date: December 1, 2021, 5:44 am --------------------------------------------------------- Hi SolingerStahl, Thats a nice Marklin motor, I will check this out.... Regards, Maurice. #Post#: 47077-------------------------------------------------- Re: Old dynamo / motor By: SolingerStahl Date: December 1, 2021, 6:10 am --------------------------------------------------------- There is a similar MARKLIN motor, possibly also made by LAHMEYER... *****************************************************
