Have W/W with Danfoss and Yaskawa drives and at present looking for another brand for replacement and wondering if anyone else has had success at this.
Danfoss no longer make the same type, the new and improved do not fit well and are harder too program, Yaskawa have not proved to be very reliable and are expensive.

Has anyone had experience with Automation Direct drives?

I replaced all three of my drives on a WW 1.0 with the Danfoss 132F0010. Yes, it is a bit tighter in the box, but I had no issues programming them. They have been flawless for over 2 years now. They were only $212 with the programmer. That was cheap enough for me to put a spare on the shelf.

Washnvac,

Thanks for reply, I have one of the newer Danfoss running on the gantry drive now( got running only after factory rep. spent a day working on it) now the Boom drive has gone out and the factory rep. has not been able to get it running after 3 partial days working on it.
At present machine is down waiting on factory response.

Is it possible you could e-mail me the info on parameters to be changed and the connections for wiring.

If possible I would greatly appreciate it.
