Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Bridgeport Series 2 Conversion

I did a B'port conversion from Bandit/stepper control. Tossed all the electronics. Replaced steppers with 100 volt 14 amp 40 lb-in servos. E5S-200 US digital encoders on each servo. PC running Running Mach2. Bob Campbells breakout board. Gecko 320 servo drives. There are pics of it on "CNC pics" list at yahoo under rogersmach.

It's a really great machine that I use on a daily basis and have for the last 17 months. Very reliable unit capable of anything I throw at it.

Greetings All, My first post. I have purchased a clean Series 2
early step motor B'port to retro. Any other folks done one? I'm
thinking keeping steppers, Mach2, API drives (got them in stock
already). Could use feedback re: choices and direction with "Spindle
Wizard" Thanks much! Larry
