Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Analog Output controller?

Hi jracingrc,

You can also check out http://www.jraco.com/ I use one of their
controllers with very similar AMC drives. You will need a Galil motion
control card to close the servo loop. These come up periodically on
eBay. The JRA system has proven to be extremely reliable and easy to
use for R&D and production work on my BP knee mill.

Cheers, Peter
