    Brushless spindle drive using

    Hi guys
    Can I use this
    http://www.copleycontrols.com/motion...pdf/7225ac.pdf
    to spin one of these
    http://www.emoteq.com/quantum.htm size is a 2302
    to max rpm using something like a +/- 10V signal generator

    Thanks for your time

    It does'nt look like it, unless you have a controller that can supply the Amp with two phase sinusoidal control, and the motor is designed for DC brushless commutation signals.
    Also you require an encoder that can feedback the commutation to the controller.

    There is a encoder on the motor 2000 line with Halls too

    Then you will need a dual sinusoidal type output from the Controller.

    That seems an expensive option for a spindle drive, have a look at this.

    Also this option does not need an encoder, but will accept one if you want to use an encoder.

    I already have the amp; I gave $10 for it; the servo I got 2 for $24
    So it's a cheap option
