Hercus Lathe motor Star to Delta conversion,
A friend of mine picked up a 1960's roller bearing 9 inch lathe and was asking about a suitable single phase motor to allow it to be used at home on 240 volts. I suggested that it would be best to use the original motor and convert it to Delta and run it from a VFD. We found a small drive and Ebay and I got stuck into the conversion while we waited for the drive to arrive. These motor are well made and relatively easy to convert for 240 volt 3 phase operation.
