Bue, you may want to check with the manufacturer because I think alot of motors can be converted to 220 from 110 fairly easily.

IIRC when I bought the motor for my mini drum sander, I ahd the option to rewire for 220v if needed. Obviously I didn't do it, but it looked easy enough.

I'm pretty sure that with a motor, and Hz difference will just result in a proportional change in motor RPM, so 50hZ vs 60Hz shouldn't be a deal breaker is the voltage is ok.

Might have problems if the feed belt motor is DC and uses an AC to DC conveter, but now we're starting to get past my off the cuff memory of circuits class.

Manufacturer may have the answers for you.
