Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
Out of curiosity, is it that expensive to upgrade your power supply in the States?
S.Roque can make the press and flashes in single phase. You can also buy a compressor in single phase. You probably don't need a 7.5hp compressor, 5hp will be just fine unless you expect to expand in the future. I don't have my numbers here with me, but I want to say the press you selected only needs like 14CFM or something running at full speed, which you will not do. Look at the site I posted for the air dryer, they have good compressors as well. Single phase also.
you will be fine with a Workhorse dryer. 36" wide should be all you need,
40 amp maybe 45-50amp probably, 60 amp dryer 24-36 inch dryer. Available yes. Overall hard.Shane
Oh and what sort of amperage can you get? You just listed off a 40 amp flash, 60 amp dryer and 50 amp compressor. That's 150 amps... now you said "less"... but still easily over 100 amps probably?
I would even go as far as saying a waste of money especially if you are on a budget. Say again why do you need such a fancy press to print give a way tees? You might even be fine with a Diamondback-S.
Depends for me with a transformer close it was 6000-10000 for the utility company then the service upgrade at about 7500. Here in Colorado if you go over a limit on 3 phase you go to 3.00 per kilowatt. Otherwise about 1/3 or less than that at reg prices. Other rates and states different.Shane
