Hello MKSJ,
I plan to purchase the PM1440GT lathe with the 3PH 3HP motor option. I am also considering using a Yaskawa CIMR-VUBA-0012-FAA VFD to control the motor rather than the Hitachi WJ200 VFD. The Yaskawa is designed to accept single phase input of 240 VAC and convert to the 3PH output and is rated for the 3HP motor. Other than the higher cost can you think of any reasons why I should not use the Yaskawa in this application. Also, I have attempted to attach the Yaskawa drive manual to this post however I am not sure if it attached. Thanks Steve
