The plain back with the separate D1-4 mounting plate,
gets you a 6" D1-4 4 jaw and keeps your weight down
(if that is what you want). The mounting plate is
fully machined and is a straight bolt on. You
can also then use the chuck on another lathe if need be.



Good luck making the decision

I know - all this leads me to believe that the Enco price is actually quite good.

These are plain backs.... you need the adaptor plate.

I will post that when I find the price.

Check out
They have 6" 4j plain backs:

7-850-0300 3-1/2 inch 1.000 3.4 lbs. $ 160.
7-850-0400 4 inch --- --- 170.
7-850-0500 5 inch 1.0236 8 lbs 175.
7-850-0600 6 inch 1.6535 9 lbs. 195.
7-850-0800 8 inch 1.9685 32 lbs. 255.

you can then get the adaptor plates for ~150.00


You can find them cheaper at various times.

Look at KBCtools; sometimes they are very cheap,
also there are some ebay vendors of bison stuff.



But you are right; look at the weight diff between
the 6 and 8 inch!! Holy crap!!

Maybe you are right; maybe the 6" is the way to go.

Re: VFD wiring

 

Is that $270 new or used? Sounds like an excellent price! How much was the resistor?

I know mine won't fit into the lathe - you probably don't have the 'safety electric' version - in that one all the space is taken up with the extra relays etc

I only need a passive resistor. My VFD is a Westinghouse-TECO.
I have one one for my mill as well; I like having the "shared

I paid 270.xx for it. So far I think it is great, Like Dave

Re: 4-jaw chuck for S11

I have a V10P lathe as well as my S11...OK I confess
I also have a compact 8..(but I am getting rid of it)

I have the 4J for the V10P; it is beautiful. It is light-weight
/narrow bodied. It is nominally 6". In fact it is one of
the main reasons that I am keeping the V10P lathe; 'cause
I have a 4J that fits it.

I don't think that the S11 would have any problem with
an 8" 4J. In fact I would only get one smaller
if it were a great deal. The V10P +i think+ is < 1hp.

I think Bison stuff is great. I have their set-tru 5c
collet chuck. In fact, If I didn't ahve a EMCO 3J

Steel-bodied as opposed to ?? Aren't they all?

So can you tell me how far the jaws stick out on the 8"?? Of course one will always rotate by hand first, so I don't really know why I'm concerned.? Biggest concern I think is the mass of an 8", is it a match for the S11.? Would you consider putting the 8" onto the V10?

Re: VFD wiring

 

Almus,
I don't know exactly. The main problem is that it requires more than a passive resistor - the control circuitry is NOT part of my VFD - it's external. There has to be a DC bus voltage sensor, and control that switches in the resistor. Along with some fuses, thermal protection etc. I've done a little reading, and this is a well-known trap apparently, and a lucrative captive market for the drive manufacturer.

What VFD do you have? I understand some VFDs have the control circuit built in so externally you just need a passive resistor.

Don't know whether I can find out resistor specs. I have a feeling knowing the DC bus voltage (which I can measure) and the horse power of the motor I should be able to calculate both resistance and wattage. V^2/R is the power so if I know how high the voltage rises and ... well, never mind, it doesn't matter ;-) I'm not about to design a control circuit

understand that some drives have the logic in the drive, and the

this as a really high $ item. Wow!!! My drive cost me $80... it's
