Both of the drives I saw on the CNC4PC website are step/dir drives, so the encoders and tuning are handled in the drives. I think PWM amplifiers are a better match for EMC2, but you may need a high speed I/O for the encoders and PWM if you have a high resolution or high speed machine. mesanet.com and pico-systems.com have servo amps. The advantage is that you can use halscope/halmeter for tuning EMC2's PID and have a little more flexibility with HAL to get creative. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
