Before I get to the meat of my question, I need to verify that inverters and VFDs are synonymous.
So I took a gamble and bought a pair of spindles second hand on ebay for cheap. I have never used anything but a router before so I was hoping to break into spindles and not loose much if something goes wrong.
Now I need to figure out how to get a way of running the spindle.
How do I match inverters to their spindles? 400V, 13A and the other 400V 1.3A.
Can the spindles be run at a lower voltage? Does the frequency a spindle is run at control the speed, and the voltage the torque?
Do I need measure the inductance of the spindle for matching an inverter to it?
I asked the company for info, but as these are second hand, I won't be holding my breath for much.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
