Well, the big kicker here is that you need to get electrically-actuated
proportional servo
valves of adequate capacity for the machine. These are not expensive,
they are REAL
expensive! You could likely buy a working Bridgeport Series-II CNC
machine for what
a set of 3 Moog or Parker-Hannifin prop. servo valves would cost!
Conceivably close
to $10,000 for a set of 3. Then, you need servo amps designed to drive
a prop. servo
valve. I have the prints for how A-B did it on the 7320-series of
controls. They added
a 400 Hz sine wave to the velocity command signal from the computer to
keep the
valve's spool from settling in one spot. I don't think you could get a
system working
without some kind of dither like that. (A small software change could
put the dither
in from the CPU, instead.)
