DENFORD CYCLONE POWER SUPPLY

Post by g-speed » Fri 03 Nov , 2006 18:24 pm

I HAVE LOOKED AT A DENFORD CYCLONE LATHE FOR SALE BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT SHOULD HAVE A POWER SUPPLY BOX THAT YOU CONNECT TO 3-PHASE 415V AND THEN PLUGS INTO THE MACHINE WITH TWO BIG CONNECTORS APPROX 8 PINS EACH. WHAT DOES THIS BOX CONTAIN AND IS IT POSSIBLE TO OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT. THE MACHINE IS FITTED WITH FANUC CONTROL.

Probably all the expensive Fanuc cards and contactors etc - very expensive! The only use it will have will be a retrofit.

The box you are talking about should have a couple of transformers, a 24volt DC power supply & several fuses & circuit breakers. It was only the early machines that were built like that though. If the two 16 way plugs are fitted the transformer box is needed. It would be a trauma to reproduce the box now.

Martin - isn't this box the Fanuc Autotransformer which provided 3 phase 200VAC to the drives and control ?
