Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: D&M mill

Bmachinist,

Why deal with all the old components? Just swap it all out with Mach2 on a PC with Bob Campbells breakout board and Gecko 320's. The Geckos are rated at 80 volts and 20 amps so you might have to limit the voltage going to your servos but you'll only lose a bit of speed and not any torque. Sure better than doing all that research to find out there is little or no support available.
