Hi all
First of all thanks for any help.
I have a 130V dc motor (1.34 kW) (see attached photo for more information) that I got out of a treadmill. I am using it in a homemade pottery wheels. However currently the controller out of the treadmill is complicated as it is computerised, so not easily changeable and modifications to it aren't possible. So therefore I am looking to fit a new motor controller.
I don't need to run it at full speed, at absolute maximum it needs to be half speed, if not lower. I have found a number of devices such as this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B016Y027DM that I think would work with it. However all of these kinds of devices require a dc input.
I have not managed to find a ac to dc converter that reaches a high enough voltage and power output. I am keen to keep this as cheap as possible, so am open to any suggestions.
Thanks
