Well folks, back to my bead roller and the VFD speed controller issues, the settings installed to temporarily get the VFD functioning did not hold and I am back to where I started.
At least I get the feeling that I have had the manufacturers attention, but still nothing positive results wise
Well, the latest update is as follows;
I contacted the manufacturer and suggested it could be an opportunity to send me a replacement unit as what I have maybe faulty.
They did not agree, but have continued to offer programming adjustments that have been of no consequence.
There is definitely a problem with something whether it be my motor or there unit, but I do fail to see how my motor at one time did run at the setting programmed prior to going remote.
The part of the equation is the language barrier, whereby they are using a young non technical girl to translate my comments and feedback to the Tech.
Since going remote the issues came into play.
I have tried as they suggested to go back to the panel control, but for now the issue remains with binding to a full stall.
I have taken the initiative for now and have advised them, that I plan to reset the upper speed limit from 120hz down to 87hz.
The motor starts to bind at about 90hz and grinds to a halt by 120hz.
Sadly, this limits my top speed which was factored into my original mechanical gearing, so I have elected to try and increase the size of one of my small sprockets to try and regain some top speed that way.
I guess we have parted friends, as they are just employees in this massive corporation and have limited capacity to deal.
The girl did say that should she or the Tech ever determine a similar fault or a solution that may also be a possible help to me that they would email me to advise me of any program ideas, I guess like a bulletin.
So for now at least, I have a solution that should work for me but no thanks to my manufacturer.
Should the opportunity arise I may consider doing a swap later to a more widely used and reliable brand, but for now I will just run with my plan B solution...
