I purchased a Conquest with Baldor motor 3 phase (see attached). ?I like having it ready to go at all times and used it as recently as an hour ago. ?If I could upgrade it would be to add a VFD as I would prefer to use it at a much slower speed to have better control over wood removal. ?If anyone has a link to what would be the ideal product for my motor, that would be great.
I found that ATO is a middle-of-the-road price point and works well.? It is Chinese, but built to a higher quality and the adjustment knob on the front actually works (not like the cheap chinese VFDs on Amazon).?? I like being able to dial in the target speed fast with the adjustment instead of having to hit buttons up/down many times to get to my chosen speed.
220V single-phase input ($183):
If you want 220V 3-phase input, the cost is actually higher ($293 for 220V input):
