    Rotary phase converter question

    Hello,
    I just bought a Mazak QT8 CNC lathe. It came with an American Rotary AD10 converter and I put it in my residential garage. Everything is wired and operational, and when demand is low (reduced rapids and slower spindle speeds) everything works fine. But when performance is required, I get a X axis servo alarm. I suspect the rotary phase converter is undersized and allowing the voltage to drop. geometry dash lite
    Here is the question. Can I add a 3 HP 3 phase motor to run with the idler to help prevent the problem?

    Sure, you can add idler motors to stabilize the voltages. Consider balancing run capacitors as well.
