Hi,
What is your mill?
Does it have stepper motors or servo motors?
What position feedback (ie. encoder, scale...), if any, do you have?

Hi Stuart,
DC Servos, glass encoders at 5um/division. It is an old Taiwan machine
labeled 'EAGLE'. I've recently found out it is a Topwell_3VK , ~1991.
But it has like no hours on it. Bought it on ebay.

I've recently rebuilt the electronics using Mesa's 7i77 and 7i92 boards.
I'm really happy with this thing.

Best, Dan.
