Dear Friends
Recently I bought an old skiving machine. The manufacturer is danish, but all the parts seem to be more or less standard Fortuna stuff.
The skiving machine had a three phase 380 volt, 0.55KW, 3/4 hp, 2800 rpm motor mounted. I replaced it with a single phase 240 volt, 0.55KW, 3/4 hp, 2800 rpm motor.
As the motor is driving the machine directly - and the feed mechanism via a clutch, it takes a lot of torque to get it running. My 240 volt motor does not have enough power to run the skiving machine (at least to start with).
Does anyone have any idea of the compatibility relationship between a single phase and three phase motor?
Best regards
Danish Man
