Some switchers need a minimum load to work
I use a switcher for my stepper driven mill,
linear PSUs can be momentarily overloaded quite a bit. That's what I've
heard make them preferable for stepper/servo PSUs. The servo/stepper drive
will contain more or less circuits for voltage and/or current control, so
it's not that important to have a well-regulated DC-rail for the drive.

It depends on the supply whether it can be used with steppers or not.

Pretty much self explanatory. Read the error message in the UL corner.
I think my machine has been smoking the wrong stuff.
What is going on here?
Quick cure?

Ah yes, that error! It is a problem

For my servo CNC lathe conversion, I bought a linear power supply with a
toroidal transformer from AnTek.

They're a little pricy, but nothing like the prices I've seen in this
thread. The AnTek power supplies provide the higher voltage needed for
the stepper or servo

Not strictly EMC but I am sure people here will know the answer. We all
know that a 3-phase VFD can often be used off one-phase. Since all the
current is then pulled off the one leg of the input rectifier, the standard
wisdom says that you derate the VFD power in this situation by a factor of
2 or

It occurred to me that since the input circuit should be just a 3-phase
rectifier, it should work to connect all three input terminals together,
and feed that from the single phase.
Two wires, three terminals.

I can see that, while equalizing the load across the rectifiers, this
scheme doesn't help with power variation within the 50/60Hz cycle, so some
derating is still called for, I think.

I've given this some thought
How many kW are you looking for?

If you put neutral on terminal L1 and phase on terminal 2 and 3, it
will simply parallel 2 leg of the rectifier, this will change nothing.
If you don't have enough power, you can try to increase capacitor bank
by adding external capacitor (most VFD provide connection to DC bus).
Take care
