I'm in the discovery/planning stage of doing this with my 1050. I also intend to add PLC control similar to JMorris' conversion.
I could use a little help in acquiring parts.
Could someone give me a little help with the motor specs and supplier?
One other question, from the video/pictures I've seen, it is unclear how the roller chain sprocket is attached to the shaft on the press end.
I have a machine and welding shop at my disposal and the required knowledge for the PLC, VFD, etc. With motor specs and drive questions answered, I'll be ready for the design stage.
Thanks!
