Hi all,
Here's yet another very basic VFD question - would a 3 phase Baldor commercial grade grinder need a constant torque or variable torque VFD?
I assume it would be a constant torque application - but really, know almost nothing about VFD's. All my few 3 p machines run directly off an RPC.
Background: I am trying to sort out buying a VFD to power a Baldor 220v 3P grinder I recently bought. Don't really want to run a new 3P circuit and conduit across the shop for this one piece of equipment. So am thinking about adding a cheap VFD to convert 1P to 3P at the work station.
Also, any recommendations on good versus not so good brands of VFD's and vendors these days??
Thanks
Glenn
