Quite correct, not until you would like to see something running / use LCNC
to actually retrofit a machine.
On the one side you need a modern drive interface for a high-speed machine
(the market this development
is aimed at)
On the other hand, customers got talked a hole in the head about these
beautiful modern drive systems.
I assure you very few machines leave the factory in Germany with anything
less than a SERCOSIII interface.
Enjoy your day.
