Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Power Supply Calculations

With one single supply, you could probably get by with less KVA than the
total of 3 single units. Reason, being that you seldom use all three axes
at full speed for any length of time, whereas, you may max a single axis
pretty often, and have to design for that condition. One bigger unit would
be more forgiving than any of the three smaller units. Just my perspective
on the subject. OTOH, if you can get 3 appropriately sized units for less
than one bigger unit... go fer it!
