Hi all. I’m looking to purchase a used sliding table saw, but most of them are set up for three phase, which I don’t have. From what I can tell, VFD’s are only good up to around 3HP, and using a rotary converter on a 7HP motor would pull way more amps than what I can provide.
Has anyone successfully replaced a three phase motor on a sliding saw with a single phase 220 motor? These are mostly European machines and I’m told the bolt patterns are non standard. In addition, I’m not sure if the wiring for the controls would be an issue.
Any advice or experience greatly appreciated.
