Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Compumotor Plus stepper drive

Very high resolutions can be obtained. Over 65,000 counts
on some systems. They are generally used on high end
systems, are are complex and costly.

I have at least one synchro resolver in the junk drawer. Are they
really high resolution, or just as good as analog can get? I guess you
could have more than one sine wave per rev and get more resolution. I
pretty much have written the thing off myself, seeing how encoders are
pretty cheap.
