Thank you for your reply.
If you get the Machdrives please let us know if they are easy to tune.The Tuna 
software looks easy to use and appears to be full featured but you can never 
tell till you use it.If you do order, order soon. International shipping takes 
several weeks.I asked if they wanted me to be a stocking US dealer. They said 
no.

I went with the 160 volt drives as that gives me some voltage head room to 
prevent shutdown on a voltage surge.

Be safeDale

 Hi Dale,

Thanks for the info. Those might well serve me in case of using the
original DC servos the machine has.
