Catching up on technology lost with years of overseas contracting.
Can anyone weigh in as to what might be the drive or drives most likely found in industry today? Or what you see a lot of?
I have googled but there's a lot of Spaghetti there. AB Powerflex 700, Mitsubishi? Saftronics?..
I hope to look in the water and waste industry, but want to be prepared for as many options as possible, and most importantly don't want to waste hours studying a drive's manual that I am very unlikely to see anywhere.
I will be re-entering the control electrician/ tech job market soon and can program pretty well w/ RsLogix 5000 and want to regain general Drive knowledge.
But honestly, the last project I did in the states was many years ago rewiring a water-plant with Controls I designed and U.S. Filter Telemetry and I used Saftronics GP-10's.
I'll do the digging for the manuals; just asking for your opinion...
I realize this is a VAGUE question, I just want to download a drive manual or two and have a heads up on what I may be "likely to see."
P.S. I am in the U.S. and may wind up anywhere.
