I'm suffering from a bit of memory loss. About 5 years ago I did a service call on a roof flashing cnc press brake. Among other things that were unique on this machine was a drive that alternated between driving two motors, one with an encoder and one without. They swapped motors with a pair of contactors and had an auxiliary contact on one of them to inform the drive which motor parameter set to select.
I don't remember the drive make or model. Does anyone have any idea what drives are capable of this setup?
The machine I'm looking to deploy this on has a 1-1/2hp gearmotor with encoder and a 3hp gearmotor without feedback (limit switch controlled positioning) with an undersized control box I have room for one drive in.
