Hello,
I have a four machines I'm setting up to run on my 380V 50Hz supply:
1) Lathe - 220/440 60Hz 5hp
2) Mill - 230 60Hz 2hp (motor plate says it can run at 50hz 380V)
3) Surface Grinder - 220/440 60Hz 1hp
4) Surfacer - 208-220/440 60/50Hz 2hp
I've attached photos of the motor plates. My options for each one are:
a) replace the motor
b) wire them for 440 and run at decreased frequency and voltage of 380/50
c) use a VFD to output 60Hz at 220V or 440V.
given the motors and their uses, what do you think would be best?
