Newbie question I bought an onefinity cnc (woodworker). Then a Huanyang 100v 2.2kw 80mm spindle and now I find out I need VFD to match. I have no idea what I am looking for to match. The control cable has an (I am guessing a 4 pin connection that plugs into spindle and the other end is 4 seperate wires hanging loose. Help please and thanks
Thanks so much I am sinking fast but great advise will do. The more I try and learn the more confused I am.
You’ll find that there are virtually NO 2.2kw, 110V, spindles available. This is due to the current that would be needed, well over the limits of 110V wiring. I run a 1.5kw, 110v and I can tell you there’s little overhead on the 20A circuit it’s on…
2.2kw, 220V spindles are everywhere and draw much less current. I’d have one if I had 220 available in my garage…
Hope this helps,
Eric
