John Some things to look for. 1: Make sure that you field supply is not grounded to the same ground as the VFD. I.E the 24v Filed supply must be floating. 2: All cables must be screened where possible. 3: Screen must only be connected at the source and and to one single place to the physical earth of the box as well as the mains earth. 4: Earth must only be connected at one single point (star connection)
I had a similar problem with my lathe and found in the end that my spindle motor cage was not physical earth and caused huge noise. >I have a BP knee mill with an Anilam 1100M CNC kit on it.
