Tips: VFD vs Soft Starter in high starting torque application
Variable frequency drive (VFD) solution will solve in most cases the torque problem when using standard induction motor. Soft starter that reduce the toque might not deliver the required torque in effort to get to full speed. VFD with vector control is able produce higher torque in induction motor shaft than star delta or soft starter while also drawing less current from the power supply. This way you can have high torque during start, low current and after getting into full speed you bypass the VFD and save all the energy loses and noises that VFD caused.

If starting torque is not an issue in the installation, the start delta or soft starter are both OK. If you want to limit current rush in start or jam situation or you want to get higher starting torque then vector control VFD is a good selection and even better if closed loop with speed feedback from motor to VFD. Energy saving with VFD is achieved due to better control of magnetizing and rotor currents. It optimizes total current to motor thus reduces motor (and network) losses caused by excess current.

Great VFD for the price!
Great VFD for the price! Set it up with my 3-phase motor, and it runs super smooth. Easy wiring, solid build, and I like that it supports RS485. Shipping was fast too.

High performance and stability
The control mode of this VFD supports V/F control and sensorless vector control, and it performs very smoothly in practice. It responds quickly to changes in load and maintains a stable output.

It's working excellent
Upgraded my lathe with this 5kW VFD and it’s like a whole new machine. Runs smoother, quieter, and the control is spot on. Even saves on energy without losing power. Plus, it was a cinch to install and when I had a question, customer service was right there. Definitely a good pick if you’re looking to give your lathe a boost.

Very energy efficient
This VFD is not only a great performer, but also very energy efficient. Since installing this VFD, our power consumption has been significantly reduced and our costs have decreased accordingly. Its energy efficiency is excellent and it has helped us to realize a more environmentally friendly production process!
