GROB 4v18 bandsaw. About 1700lbs of good old American iron. Took a 863 mile Quick trip yesterday.
Both of these are 3 phase machines.I just mounted my Teco 3 phase VFD to the wall between them . Going to add a recepticle to it so I can plug either machine in. Saves on buying another VFD.
Beware: VFD's must be hooked up directly to the driven motor and must control it directly. The VFD will not appreciate the magnetic controls on the Grob and may be damaged as a consequence.
Looks like it's time for a phase converter.![]()
