Power Supply Guidance Needed

Hello Again,
I need some help with PS design. I have a Bridgeport that had
steppers
on it. I found 3 used NEMA 42 SEM servos that have a maximun current
of
145VDC @ 32A so I was wondering what VA rating on the transformer I
would need and also what would be a good rectifier bridge choice? I
was
thinking that about 1500VA on the tranny and voltage around 100 or
so.
Am I in the ballpark? I also want to put a crowbar on the whole thing
operated by table limit switches and E-Stop. I still have the 3
original stepper motor supplies and saturable reactors. Are they good
for anything? I have been unable to locate any information on the
main
transformers (ACME T-68932)so this leads me to believe that they are
built especially for Bridgeport. Does anyone have the specifications
on
them? It seems that they have an output of 70V with 120V on the
primary. Just about right but I think they were designed to run at
about 40V on the primary though. I plan to run Rutex 2020 drives. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Larry Olson
