#000000;">Hi, I have a 1988 First CNC mill that I am considering
retrofitting to accept LinuxCNC. The motors are Fanuc red cap with 10000
ppr. How long will these encoders last? They are all ready 29
years old. I have other machines with dying encoders and linear scales
and it usually starts with the marker pulse. I just wonder if money is
better spent on new normal encoders rather conversion systems to work with the
old Fanuc stuff. That being said, sometimes the newer stuff is less
durable than the old components.<br>

Thanks - Steve V
