I am not too knowledable on the hardware side, nor do I know exactly how the AC motor are controlled? was is sine or square wave?(am I even close?) But why does an AC driver need DC powersupply? The driver generated the AC signal? Is that standard?
Anyways, I'm for the higher power, higher duty cycle drives, high resolution. I like the bigger machines.
Also, I would like to offer my help if needed with the control aspect of the drive, I can help with the modeling and PID control and testing..
