Gentlemen,
Vladimir told me last night that he has 16 of the R2040's ready to ship to me this week. FINALLY. These were individually assembled by hand, and tested by Vladimir.
After their performance is proven in the field a little while, he will run a full production run of them.
I wrote "they do not work as nicely as a real servo drive, they will be able to control the position of the motor."
What I meant by this is that when one uses a VFD to control an AC motor, in my limited experience, it is hard to get the VFD/motor to respond as quickly as a servo drive and DC motor can be tuned, although the Rutex R2040/ VFD / motor combination will position the motor, albeit a little slower than the drive /motor setup.
Maybe some VFD's can be tuned to respond quickly, but I do not have the experience to say that they can.
