I'm new to this site , I've been reading a lot but didn't post too much Anyway here's the deal : I got a Shizuoka 3hp CNC mill and I need to drive the spindle from 220 single phase. I got two choices here 1) AC TECH SM230S , here's the link to it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 2) Hitachi L200-022NFU , here's the link for this one too : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 Now what's a better choice. I know some of you guys use these VFD's and I would like to know what will do a better job at driving my spindle. Any other VFD's I'm open for sugestions. I need 220v 1ph input - 220v 3ph 2.2kw output. If any of you guys has one of these used I'm interested in buying one. Thanks Any replies will be appreciated. |

At first glance, these both look good, but you'll need to track down the manuals read up a bit to see which has the bettter features that you like. Remote mounting of the control pad is nice, as is a TTL level "error" signal. The biggest feature I wish for on my Mitsubishi VFD (on my Bridgeport) is to accept pulse/direction signals to command the RPM. Most dries only accept +/- 10v, which requires an external PCB to convert TTL to analog signals. Is your motor 3hp? Hopefully since these VFDs are rated for single-phase input, they will achieve their full rated HP. I cheated on my mitsubishi and only hooked up 2 of the 3 input wires (upstream of the bridge rectifier). So my 3HP VFD is at full capacity running a 2HP motor, because I am only supplying 2 of 3 legs. Let us know what you go with... |
