Re: Subject: First CNC Build - Help Needed with Servo Motor Setup
Are you talking about a 16amp main circuit breaker? Anything else running on the circuit? What is the power point rated at?
You won't be able to have all three 1kw running at peak at the same time on a 16 amp breaker.
Servos are rated at continuous power limit.
So 1kw is continuous power rating, 3.19nM is continuous torque rating etc.
Usually they will be capable of brief bursts of peak torque/power about 3x this.
But it will come down to what load you are actually putting on the servos, how many at once etc.
You should be able to set a torque limit, which is effectively a current limit.
I don't think you can add capacitors.
I tried to find in rush current figures for servo drive startup (there is not the usual motor in rush current, because the drive controls this, but there is a big bank of capacitors that get charged) but couldn't find much.
