    DC injection Braking

    Could you answer a few questions so we might help you better. A- Is the brake on the saw motor a mechanical "an electric coil is mechanicaly causing braking"? B- Is the D/C, put into the stator causing rotor lock? C- How is the A/C to D/C transfer done is it mechanical relay,solid...

    ???Load circuits for a lighting power supply???

    Could you give us a little more info- volts,A/C-D/C,<br> expected current is the load inductive?<br> Could you E-mail me a circuit drawing of your test circuit <br> with values,&quot;real and needed&quot; <br> <br> <A HREF="mailto:elken@frontiernet.net">elken@frontiernet.net</A><br>

    Requirements for a successful automation project.

    I don't think it's a question which is right.<br> The customers I work for look at it this way.<br> OK lets say &quot;A&quot; is process into XYZ &quot;B&quot; is process out.<br> The bottom line is A+XYZ+B=PROFIT &quot;The Real Boss&quot;<br> Many designers are given 100% to 150% flow rates to...

    Bus Trunking Systems

    I don't know of any web site that would compare the different brands you listed.When I've wanted to make comparisons myself , I'll search electrical wholesaler sites.Some have tech data on their sites or links to manufactures tech data , I print it out and make my own comparison.Here are just a...

    Synchronization of stepper motors

    I wasn't able to formulate a positive conclusion at the bugo page. The carriages I"ve seen of this style are normally hooked to another control system "CNC-CAD or PLC" incorporating them into the welder, cutter or machine. I would call the bugo people, with the opportunity of sale they would be...

    Synchronization of stepper motors

    If your looking for accuracy on the larger system , I might<br> try two VSR drives with an encoder hooked to each.This would<br> give you flexiblity,speed,position,monitering.They could be slaved together to match speed and direction.If your hooking<br> to a PLC you would be able control and...

    NEMA Motor Frame Sizes

    Baldor & Reliance both offer tech pages with dimension drawings.I think both also offer CD catalog's if you fill out their form's! "try the site below I find it usefull"<br> http://www.west.net/~rondoc/motworld.html

    Synchronization of stepper motors

    1- How much time delay between motor to motor switch over ?<br> 2- Do you need vari-speed or would 1,2,or 3 pre set's work?<br> 3- Does the backup motor need to switch on at the same speed, the (PM) failed or can it ramp up ?<br> 4- Can you give us some type $ amount to work up a control ckt ?<br>

    Cycle Skipper

    A few weeks ago I was reading about this type of drive on the net. I went back to find you the page,but no luck!<br> Rockwell Reliance post tech, info white pages. this is where<br> I read about the drive configuration.You will need Adobe to<br> read them,their site's are very large and some of...

    Synchronous generators in series with UPS

    I don't know the Why?<br> I thought maybe you wanted general ideas "Sorry"<br> I've heard there is a company in California that builds a kit add-on for your exicter problem , don't know if it works<br> or not,or the name of the company.<br> The system's I've worked on gen,ups,& harmonic...

    Synchronous generators in series with UPS

    A Y-DELTA TRANSFORMER BETWEEN THE LOAD AND SUPPLY WILL TAKE<br> CARE OF MOST PROBLEMS,IF YOUR MAIN CONCERN IS THE LOAD SERVED."DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF HARMONIC"<br> IF YOUR CONCERN IS VOLTAGES IN THE GENSET THE Y-DELTA CAN ALSO BE PLACED ON THE LOAD SIDE OF THE UPS.<br> THE WAY THE SYSTEM IS...
