I just went to look at a '80s Bridgeport VMC with Heidenhain controller and Fanuc yellow cap servos (didn't get inside a cabinet for closer investigation - yet). The beast has a tool changer and a bad controller. Anyone have experience with that particular configuration? Particularly, what servo amps were used and what encoder technology - I remember discussions about Fanuc hardware that suggested that specialized interface hardware is necessary. What about tool changer technology - I assume a PLC process in the LCNC environment would be sufficient to get that running.
It's probably just a passing fancy, but oh my it's a temptation.
