(continued from Chapter 1: Omega Lathes Stubby 750 VFD)
I replaced my old VFD on my Stubby 750 with a WEG CFW 500 V1 8X
I'm not happy with it. I had a club member engineer over, he tweaked it but still not working right. I do not have torque. What looks like the main torque parameter P0009 suppose to be adjustable to 1000%, but you can't adjust it. It's at ZERO. If anybody uses this unit, can you send me your parameters? I have another guy coming tomorrow to take a look. Also, Rod Caddeye from Omega lathes is going to a customers shop tomorrow with a Stubby and a WEG unit; he will send me the parameters too. I'm just trying to see what others are using. The WEG is an upgraded unit over what the Stubby comes from the factory. I wish I didn't upgrade; the other unit is proven, this one supposes to be way better, my engineer friend told me is worth the extra money. He recommends one unit that cost as much as a lathe, a top of the line lathe. Thanks in advance.
