Emco Concept Mill 55 w/ Lenze VFD

Post by jwalker »

Hoping someone has mercy on me!

I am starting to retrofit an Emco Concept Mill 55 with a Centroid Acorn in my classroom. I am a teacher and by no means an expert at this sort of thing. I think I have most of the info I need, but am unsure how to properly wire the original Lenze VFD. Would anyone happen to have any schematics that show how to wire the VFD to the Centroid Acorn? The VFD is the Lenze e823v751. Here is a link: https://download.lenze.com/TD/E82EV__82 ... -0__EN.pdf. I think page 194 gives the necessary info. The inputs/ outputs currently used by the original ACC system are: 62, 7, 8, 28, E1, E4, 39, A1 and 59. I know where some of these would connect, but am unsure of others. Please let me know if you need additional info.

Thank you in advance!

How did you hookup the individual drives? Curious if you have photos of the box and layout! Thanks so much.
