Hi Sven. It is a small machine but in any case I suggest to you to use a plc in stead on LCNC. I mean it is possibile to do it even with LCNC but will be much difficult. I did many injection molding machine retrofit (the electric and Electronic and software part) and a plc+hmi is the much confortable solution. Realtime is needed as per machine cycle control (you have to be deterministic for a precise and reliable control). A 10ms task can be acceptable. I personally made a hw and sw package with Schneider Electric plc M258 and hmi Magelis GTO 10"" touch screen plus a software Application that I personally developed. But if you have time to spend and less money you cam try LCNC + MODBUS IO . ;-)

I also have an old injection mould machine I plan to retrofit. But I also have other problems power supply is limited so fuses will before correct pressure is reached. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
