Re: Help with servo control

Jim,

I recently aquired a Milltronics Partner 00 cnc knee mill. It started
life as a Centurian I but is now a cent v. The computer in mine is a
'standard' 386sx40 motherboard with an off the shelf vga card,
i/o card and 2mgs of memory. There is a s-ram board which has the
programs in rom and 3 Acro Loop output cards which read the encoders
and output signals to the servo amps.

What are you having problems with?

3 axis of movemnt via servo motors. Of course, the machine is in fine
shape, but the computer is dying. I am in the process of researching
retrofit control packages for my machine. I have found many stepper
conrols, but very few servo controllers. My machine uses standard servo
amps with +/-10v industry standard inputs. I would prefer to use software
control, in either UNIX or DOS platforms. Any help or suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.
