I have a 3-phase Alliant mill (variable speed via handwheel) in my basement. It came with a 3-phase-to-single-phase converter that was purchased on eBay. The converter is a homemade rig that is very simple, but, apparently, reduces horsepower by 1/3.
I'd like to go the VFD route mostly as a way to learn about it.
I happen to have an Omron VS mini J7 VFD CIMR-J7AZ20P4 AC Drive Motor Controller. Is this something that could be used to control the mill or is this not the correct application?
