So... Without ripping out the current spindle motor and starting over.. It works surprisingly well - the 0-950 acts like a normal dc motor (field voltage stays constant) The field weakening is a bit more mushy. Dropping the field voltage from 115v to 28V runs the rpm up from 950 to 2500 a bit slower..
Currently I have a 2 lincurv components that take RPM and spit out a voltage to each drive (field and armature) In front of that is a limit2 which limits the slew to 400rpm/sec. If I put a pid loop around that - it works ok - and maybe that is as good as it gets. Thoughts?
