Up for grabs is a very, very lightly used (frame has never been used and tooling arm was used 1 time) KMG from beaumont metalworks. It is covered in a coat of neverwet but the stuff doesn't work very well so I would advise stripping it off and painting it.

KMG frame, Tooling Arm, platen and work rest- $550+ shipping cost This is $200 of direct from beaumont pricing.

Im in Lexington KY for local pickup.

Also have other parts pictured available if interested.

PM me or email me at huntsmanknifeco AT gmail DOT com

Thanks,

Hunter

if i am reading this correctly it looks like you will need three phase power to run that motor with that drive, right?
 
You'll need that to get 3hp output as far as I know, but you can run it with 220v single phase input and only get 2hp out of the motor basically.. Not sure if that'll cause long term damage to the motor or not, but I've run one like that with no obvious ill effects.


KB Electronics makes two versions of the KBAC 29 unfortunately, one that needs 3 phase input to hit 3hp, and one that doesn't. I ended up with one that does, like this one. Running from my phase converter now.
 
The VFD can run on single or 3 phase but the Motor I believe can only run on 3 phase. At least that is my understanding. So you will need 3 phase power to work this unit or a phase converter. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

The VFD IS the phase converter. It runs on single or three phase power in - three phase power out. The motor runs off the three phase power coming out of the VFD (phase converter).
 
Kal-El,
Is the KMG frame and tool bar still available? Does the contact wheel come with it? Lastly, will you ship to Arizona?

Thanks

PT doc- The contact wheel is 5in and is available for $75

The KMG and tooling arm +work rest and platen is still available. The contact wheel is not included and I will ship to Arizona. Buyer must cover actual shipping costs.
 
Hey Hunter. I sent you an email early yesterday right after you sent one to me. Please check your time line.
