Re: 1 phase options
Wolfgang: When a VFD, is installed on a machine, and an industrial duty scoring motor is also selected, how does Felder handle the speed of the scoring unit? Will there be two drives, one for the saw,

Re: 1 phase options
Two words: I'm drooling! ;-) Are those speeds correct on the shaper? It looks like you have the ranges mixed up (slow/med/high). Can this system be just as economically retrofitted to my BF6-31 by any

Re: Phase converter ?
Hi Bob: In reading the posts about the phase converter, I would offer an alternative. With today's technology, have you explored using a VFD, Variable Frequency Drive? Like you, I am in the "process"

Re: Phase converter ?
Hi Bob, The MA-1 is the one I have in my shop. It will handle up to the 4kw motors(approx5.5hp)and 15hp total. Kay actually derates their converters. One of our owners has the 5kw(7.5hp)AD7-51 hooked

Re: Phase converter ?

Re: [ Re: Someone please educate me. ]
If I am preparing to run a bunch of rough sawn lumber through the jointer, I will likely use the power feeder for speed, consistency, and safety. Jointing is the first operation I apply to rough sawn

Re: Happy to be a member
Al - Welcome to the group... I remember corresponding with you about a year or so ago when I was trying to decide between the X-31 and the Felder. I guess you now know what I ended up with. Hope you
