    SPINDLE INVERTER

    I am looking on some advice on a spindle inverter for my machine. I have a 4020, HT, RTap, 15HP and currently have a INV-0056 (AMC Inverter). I have been offered, as replacement the following:

    INV-0020 (Baldor)
    INV-077 (Yaskawa)
    INV-096 (AMC)

    Can any one offer their opinion as to what has been suggested as replacments. I want to try and stay away from the AMC. I know very little about the Yaskawa and would like any feed back.

    Call Practecllc.com first before you ditch your AMC
    We have had good luck with our Fadals milling mostly soft steel and aluminum up to 5 axis. We are always looking for spare parts If you have a broken down Fadal give a shout.

    inverter choice

    INV-077 (Yaskawa) is what the newer machines 2003-up in my shop have.
    No failures so far with the Yaskawa, I have had AMC inverters last from 2yrs to 15 years and still going.

    THE INV-0077 YASKAWA INVERTERS IN MY OPINION ARE DEFINITLY BETTER THAN THE AMC INV-0056 - BUT THE BALDOR INV-0020 ARE JUST AS RELIABLE - SO I WOULD USE EITHER ONE - LET THE PRICE BE YOUR GUIDE BETWEEN THE TWO

    Yaskawa is the Japanese-made inverter...very reliable.
