I can't seem to increase torque to the desired level w/o the motor just sitting there shaking itself to death.
I can only get 80 foot lbs after the 30:1 gear box.
1/4hp motor
1/2 hp Toshiba drive
Auto tuned
Yes, the motor is rated at 239 inch pounds of torque. And after the gear box that equals 80 foot lbs, but come on.
Why does it shake itself to death when I raise the torque limit of the drive up from 200%?
The asynchronous motor had much better torque.
I thought IPM motors were supposed to produce more torque.
Was I mis-informed?
