awesome I have looked at it before
thinking about using it on a slant bed lathe I have just not sure if I want to go down that track of hacking it are you running it stock standard on a tormach machine or have you hacked it for your own retrofits? I am slightly concerned that I think they use a pwm style interface for the toolchanger. I I would have to use a arduino or something to interface with that which sounds dodgy. this machine is 5 ton and I want things safe so I want access to the io control pins so I can use classic ladder and keep it all within linuxcnc though probe basic lathe might be ready by the time I get to this regards Andrew On Fri, Nov 6, 2020 at 8:57 AM <ken.stra...@gmail.com> wrote: > Basically it is just LinuxCNC under the hood.
