3 phase motor foot pedal

[Terry Coyle]

Hi
I have a 3 phase motor on a blanking press.
I am looking for a way to install a foot pedal on it for a simple blanking operation.
Simply put press foot pedal and press actuates.

background is all mechanical so any help would be appreciated.

Regards
T

Manufacturer should have some options for this. no?
Voltage/ Current rating and arc suppression are some factors to consider as well as de-acceleration time of motors if required. ( Short circuit)

You need a foot pedal switch and a three phase magnetic contactor. See the picture below.



What is the voltage system (220V or 110V) at your location ?
What are the motor ratings ? (voltage, current, horse-power or kilowatt etc.)
