My plan is to find a 2HP 240VAC 3 phase motor and add an encoder. Then use one of my STMBL AC Servo Drives to run it. I haven't yet decided how I will control the speed from LinuxCNC or BBB Machinekit. So far I've only had experience with my 3 phase Harmonic Drive and the STMBL but it's step/dir. The STMBL is a product that has potential.
