I've been working on retrofitting a CNC press brake at TXRX Labs in Houston, TX.
It is current;y far enough along to make some parts, so I formed about 200 aluminum box-like things that are used in pairs as covers for light pole base plates. Here's a video of forming a few of them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHk05MQhoPU The machine uses regular servo-motors for the 2-axis back-gauge and servo-hydraulic valves for the two sides of the bending ram. Most of the ram motion is controlled by ClassicLadder and a mess of HAL components. A new press-brake friendly UI is in progress. For what it's worth, the parts being bent were cut on a CNC plasma table (that I built) that also runs LinuxCNC. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
