Todd, Yaskawa drives just don't brake. If I remember correctly, the V1000 has been around for quite some time.

One of our machines even has a Siemens drive, but it's a gigantic thing that would never fit this machine's cabinet. I'll look into it. We did order a Yaskawa drive, and are waiting on it to come in, figuring that if we get in a bind and can't wait for it we can knuckle under and pay the machine manufacture their price for one they have in stock, and keep the other as a spare. But for the time being we are slow enough we can make do without that machine and can wait for the one we ordered. Todd Zuercher P.

Have you checked to see if Siemens can help you? In order to go that fast they will sell you a license to install in a more or less standard drive. I understand that high freq drives can be used for other things, like gas centrifuges. So they try to keep track of where they go.
