Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Takisawa Astroturn DTX-1 Retro Fit

The Dc spindle drive is driven with a binary code not analog and the servo
takes analog but you will probably have to change the feedback from resolver
to encoder. I recommend using the Machinemate CNC which can handle the
whole machine without any problem. THe cnc with 48 inputs and 34 outputs
and 4 axes of control.
