I'm thinking about putting the above on my small mill drill. Currently it has a 1hp/.75kw single phase motor.
Do I just get the same size motor in 3 phase? I've seen vfd's from about £55.
Motors around £120.
Do they have to be matched or a particular type of motor, poles, voltage etc.
There are 1hp kits on eBay for £290 delivered. But if I buy separate I think there are significant savings to be made.
I would be doing the physical mounting and my son in law, who's a sparky will wire it for me.
Thanks in advance.
