    VFD and Motor Source

    I am looking to build a machine to spin cast Babbitt. I am looking for a good source for a VFD and motor. I am thinking a 3hp would be all I would need power wise. Top speed I need to spin would be around 1700rpm.

    G68 Rotation

    When using a G68 to rotate the coordinate system do I need to cancel it before changing work planes (G17,G18,G19)? I assumed I need to call out the work plane before the rotation command so we know what axis to rotate around but then once the rotation is set I could call up other work planes...
