Actually I hadn't thought of Jon but in fact he might well be an ideal rep and distributor. Although most of his stuff closes the loop with LinuxCNC reading the encoder rather than open loop. The AC Servo drives do provide the motor encoder signals out. They can even apply a ratio to them before presenting them onto the DB-25 encoder connector. > > On Mon, Mar 8, 2021, 8:52 PM John Dammeyer <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I've been using the Bergerda motors for a while now.
