That's six signals PER AXIS. It is not practical to do this on our interface hardware. Getting info on Fanuc stuff is REALLY difficult. Mesa does have the ability to drive these servo amps, although it uses up a lot of PWM channels, and CPU resources to keep up with the commutation of the motors.
Depending on the size of the motors, it may be possible to run the machine with the Pico Systems brushless PWM servo amp, it is good for up to 20 A peak. If you have the model of the motor, I can look that up. Another option is to use AMC servo amps with our PPMC analog interface system.
