Just found out the Yaskawa/Safronics spindle drive in my Three J425 is toast. Has anyone replaced any of the old Yaskawa’s with a new Mitsubishi, Hitachi or any other brand? Machine build 1993 with a Delta 20 Dynapath/Autocon control.
Old drive is Yaskawa 616G3, with 10HP rating. The Motor is also Yaskawa but 7.5HP or 5.5/3.9KW. Do I need a 10HP drive or will a 7.5HP drive do? Looking at the schematics, it does not appear that the motor has an encoder feedback.
I’m electronically challenged, however I have a good friend that works pretty well with drives, PLC’s and such.
