Are you sure the display/operator panel is fully seated and good connection made? Double checked and triple checked. Nothing showing on the drive's display. As mentioned, I hear a high pitched whine and that whine winds down slowly when I disconnect the incoming power. I had mentioned sending my dr...

You provided a picture of the spindle drive label: Spindle Drive label.jpg As for the drive, good you found a blown fuse. Disconnect the motor wires from the drive. Disconnect the cabinet feed wires from the drive. Connect 240VAC to L1 and L3 power up the drive and note what the display says. The s...

Mark, you have to make a decision on what you want to do with your spindle drive and servo drives. You are also the only one that knows your skill level. Time and money.... Yep, understood. I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing that you forgot about my skill level on the Wells Index conversation...

Got it! Thank you!

I also can't find anything identifying on the spindle drive to find a manual. I used Marty's info above to at least get started. I di...

The VFD is labeled UNDER the wires. Line side is usually LEFT side. What does the label say? VFD's are usually clearly labeled. Look up the VFD model number and download the manual Yeah, I get that Marty. There are three wires existing (for 3 phase), connected to the left side of the VFD, clearly l...

Is this thread going to turn into 400 pages like the mill?

Please, no! I was sure hoping not! LOL

Here is a 7.5 hp single phase VFD. Again, current is what counts. https://www.amazon.com/ATO-Single-Variable-Frequency-Enabled/dp/B08HLQCM5G?th=1 The stupid Amazon links don't work here, but you can search it up. I agree with Marty, try feeding single phase to that converter and see what happens. T...
