Hi there, I'm just in !
Hello to everyone.
Have a question ... I have a Union graduate lathe I'm looking to use as a metal spinning lathe, cutting Wooden former to shape aluminium over.
I do woodwork on the lathe, but I'm not getting enough torque for my requirements.
The motor I have is a single phase motor which has been installed at some stage ... prior to me purchasing it.
My question is this, should I go back to three phase to get good torque on my machine or is it possible to still get good torque with a three phase motor and an inverter?
I have looked at a package which comes with 3 phase motor and control box variable speed and an inverter.
So not sure what my best options are ...
Can someone who has experience with this give me good advice.
Kind regards
Shiver (Cyril)
