Hi, I'm pretty new to all this, I knew about nothing a year ago, then my son needed a plasma table, and being the computer guy, we built it in my shop. BTW, he started up his business about 4 months ago and has done some amazing work so far.
<http://lakeweb.net/CNC/chris.html> In March I found an Eagle Mill on Ebay and was surprised to take the bid. <http://lakeweb.net/CNC/eagle.html> I did some work with it running with the Anilam, but it has mostly sat idle so far. As the days get warmer I want to convert this thing. Closest I could find to someone else doing this was 'Project Sheet Cake'. <https://code.google.com/archive/p/sector67-sandbox/wikis/ProjectSheetCake.wiki> What is different is that it their mill positions with motor encoders. My mill has tachs on the motors and glass scales. I haven't put a scope on the glass but judging from the wires, they are quadrature. I can't imagine how it would work if they were not. From what I can find making this work takes a bit of thought. It is not as simple as using motor encoders directly. So, my first question would be, 'has anyone here done a conversion like this?' I'm guessing there will be a set of Mesa boards that can handle this job and if someone has done this, that is what they used. Thanks, Dan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
