I was going to buy a transformer to use for a 1500 watt DC power supply for driving servo motors, then had the thought that one could rectify the output of a VFD to serve the same purpose - would cost about the same (using a 2HP Teco 50 at $145), would require less capacitance to achieve the same ripple (because of higher frequency AND 3 phase), and it seems that it would be more efficient . . .
Now tell me why it won't work . . .
