Hi John,

My Asian 7x14 CNC ready lathe came with a 2000 ppr quadrature encoder on the
spindle.

Cheers,

The only sort of drive that I can possible imagine doing both would be a servo drive, but holding a static position would be problematic, as the servo motor, unlike a stepper, would be constantly hunting, wouldn't it?
