Re: [Emc-users] part 2 - Mach3 to LinuxCNC
Reminds me of when I worked for an ISP and telco at the turn of the century. They installed a calling card phone at a food processing plant. The thing looked massive and it was quite expensive. The heavy steel box was 99.9% empty space. The phone electronics were on a circuit board the size of the keypad. On 10/22/2014 1:46 PM, Pete Matos wrote: unfortunately that is completely accurate. There is BIG money in keeping the commercial controls proprietary and away from the open source cheap and free options. In my view that is never gonna change but what it does do is make THOUSANDS of nice used machines available for scrap prices just because the owner got sick and tired of dumping umpteen thousands of dollars into a control that is less than a decade old or so. It is a vicious cycle not all that unlike the cellphone wars and PC wars we see in other avenues. People gotta make money tho so I can't fault them. I would not want someone to rip the carpet out from underneath my feet either if I had ownership and royalties coming in from a system I built and sold. It's the nature of things nowadays it seems.

That is not something I would recommend Greg, although its not anything I have tried either. The reason I wouldn't try it is, particularly in a sintered bushing bearing, silicone has essentially zero surface tension, and will allow metal to metal contact, accelerating shaft wear considerably. Only if well flooded, and spinning fast enough that those teeny bearings could float on the hydrodynamic oil film, could I see where it might be a good idea. OTOH, when such a dot4 fluid is analyzed, how much of it is actually silicon based. Good question. Anecdote about cheap dot3/4 stuff. 30 years ago, when I was using a CB350F for a chair car in northeastern Kalipornia, I had to add some fluid to the front brake. Took about 3 oz of a fresh half pint of what was supposedly good stuff. Yeah, sure it was, it ate, rotted, swelled and froze every piece of OEM rubber in the system. I wound up replacing the handlebar master cylinder, all the hose down to the caliper, and the caliper which froze the front wheel up solid. I had to stop (it stopped me anyway), get out a screwdriver hammer to wedge the caliper pistons back away from the disk, then using only the back brakes, went to the bike shop and got the hose and the two kits to rebuild the whole maryann. In those days they would sell you a cylinder kit, now the feds have mandated you have to buy it all new, raising the price by about $400 in 1980 dollars. Moral, if you can smell it, put it back on the shelf try another brand, there is, or was, lots of dot3 and dot4 stuff on the shelf that would quickly destroy the rest of the system. This one even had a dot-3 on the master cylinder cap! Lasted about 12 hours after adding some cheap dot3/4 stuff.
