The K&K unit has adjustable quadrature

Posted by Mark Kelly on May 13, 2014 at 18:17:04:
The K&K unit will outperform any single phase unit such as SDS or Phoenix: two phase output with adjustable phase angle puts it into a different category.
It does mean you have to rewire your table: this is what stopped development of the Synchrotron "SDS Killer"; we were in talks with a potential manufacturer but they wanted it to be plug and play and I insisted that it have two phases and adjustable quadrature.
You may be interested to know that I also included adjustable waveshaping: you are correct that a "perfect" sinewave is not the ideal waveshape for AC synch motors.
In retrospect I should have given in an introduced the two phase model later, but it's too late now.
