I need to provide jog function on a machine (run the motor for a few seconds under load) without use of VFD**. It was done on this small printing press
Is there any inherent issue with starting an asynchronous motor under load? A
3ph motor does this with ease, but can the same be said of an async motor? Should I be looking at a particular design of async motor?thinking about bringing the directional wiring inside the motor's terminal box out to separate contactors. I'm also thinking about cross-connecting aux contacts in the contactors to eliminate possibility of actuating both simultaneously and some kind of timer relay to provide delay between forward and reverse actuation.
appreciated.
Thanks!
neighbor has had nothing but troubles with VFDs (blowing the supply fuses;
issue, not a logical one so no amount of discussion can change his mind.
