Could running a CNC off of a phase converter damage the machine??? Please email me,thanks.
Sounds like the low voltage power supply, (looks like a computer power supply).
Thousands of machines are run off of phase converters, mine too. Just make sure the voltage taps are correct. Otherwise, no problem.
