Re: [Emc-users] STOP RIGHT NOW...
Some people like reality tv shows I like reading post on mach issues. (sorry I could not help my self) random quotes from the mach forum BR549 - he seems to be actively helping on the fourm but is using Linuxcnc now.. Nested subs have problems Toolcomp and subs have problems There is NO conditional code in mach3 Good macro control is borderline Some things are strange (Pause/stop)compared to the fanuc type controls. restarts can be tricky here when commenting on someone issue - he said - the dark side cured it. (meaning the issues when away when he switched to linuxcnc) http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,19554.msg135464.html#msg135464 and another http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,19045.0.html I love this qoute in regards to linuxcnc 'Ray just do it and never look back you will be a happy CNCer again. It is not the prettiest girl in town but by FAR it is the best cook.' There are quite a few post on the mach forums and cnczone where mach seems to not obey the machine acc/vel constraints.. Like.. http://cnczone.com/forums/mach_software_artsoft_software/120113-mach_3_cv_mode_stalling.html I have been using linuxcnc for quite a while now. I have not once had an issue that was not caused by my own stupidity. If my machine randomly ran the z axis into the table - I would be a hurting unit as the servos can develop over 8 tons of force. Yes it may be a bit harder to setup but I think it far outweighs the alternatives. I have 'pushed' it for my purposes and have found little bugs here and there. They are usually fixed that day. Seriously - Within a day. the few comment that seem to come up as to why not to use linuxcnc No pause while jog. - (I will use the mach excuse - it will be in a future version) But seriously - I have not missed it. Run from line works just perfect for me. Hard to configure/not xp/not mach. - It certainly has gotten easier. It isn't nor will it ever be mach. With flexibility comes complexity. (and linuxcnc is very very flexible) It comes down to RTFM as they are very good. (thanks JohnT) No screen editor. - See mach excuse above. ;) Seriously - There is work going on right now with Gscreen (glade screen config) Slow trajectory planner. From what I have read - the top speed of linuxcnc vs mach in CV is a bit slower. This is a limitation of the current planner. But I will take slower and steady if it is consistent. (see mach cv post above) (also see mach excuse above) ;) Now - the above issues with linuxcnc are not 'bugs' but things that could be improved or added. The pace of linuxcnc development ebbs and flows - but it is pretty quick IMHO. This was a post by bob warfield (mach guy) http://www.cnczone.com/forums/1041496-post70.html Very informative.

In these days when everyone is worried about the end of the parallel port it would seem foolish to try. There are now abut a dozen hardware motion controllers supported on mach, with more in the works. A few things come to my mind. In my opinion, motherboard and add-on parallel ports are still common enough to not have to worry about this issue for quite a while. It seems most people who complain about the missing ports are trying to use ITX and smaller boards, but to me, worrying about a few square inches of motherboard space for a machine that often weighs over a ton borders on noise. I think it's best to consider what one wants the machine to do, then buy the hardware that best fits the need, rather than buy what's trendy, then try to make it work. On the other hand, hardware step generators for LinuxCNC are getting inexpensive enough to make them often, _overall_, cheaper than many parallel port setups. I suspect the Mach hardware generators are, or will be, closed and so would not be popular with the Linux crowd.

Brian, I offer another opinion here. This thread would have died a long time ago without your input. The driving force for many of the responses is not the need to prove 'Mines bigger than yours'. Everyone needs a little 'Comic relief' and jumped on this with a smile to see where it would go. I don't have a Mach system so I cannot offer a valid comment on the comparison. My reason for not even trying Mach is it runs on Windows only. In 1997/1998 I put three 5 axis MDSI controls on three 5 axis Cinci mills. I purchased MDSI's API with the purpose of developing the functionality I wished to see. I updated with them one time. The second update cycle was when they announced the next version would be based on Windows only. I called them and let them know I would not be putting Windows on any of my machines. They not only would/could/did not reconsider, they claimed they would no longer suppport the QNX versions. I have one machine running MDSI on QNX, one machine broke mechanically and one is the LinuxCNC 5 axis Cinci.

I proposed a Linuxcnc plugin that would use the Mach GUI and connect it to the Lunuxcnc bottom end.

The main issue for me is this: Often a prospective customer will specify Mach as the control software for their project. I'm pretty good at making the case for Linuxcnc, but if a lucrative project came along where the client insisted on Mach, I could meet this requirement.

Re: [Emc-users] STOP RIGHT NOW...
Ron, I simply could not resist to reply to some of Your thoughts. 2012/8/5 Ron Ginger rongin...@roadrunner.com: Mach is approaching 50,000 units sold. Over how long period of time? Most probably - years, since it has been released. LinuxCNC also has been downloaded for thousands of times over last years. And selling Mach licence to OEM does not mean anything to me - in less than a year since I am working with cnc machines, I already have retrofitted 2 machines with Mach for 2 different clients (and one more retrofit for yet another customer is in negotiation) to LinuxCNC, because they are having reliability and stability issues with Mach. All of those customers are manufacturing companies (one of them with annual turnover over 40M EUR, do not know about the rest), so machines are far from hobby use. They have work to do and dont sit around and post on mail lists or chat rooms. So do You admit the lack of customer support and lots of issues to be solved? It seems that You confirm my observation that all they care is attracting new clients instead of working with their existing customers, thus increasing customer loyalty and generating revenues from repeated sales. And these numbers are based on dollars spent, not surverys of mail lists. Ok, dollars spent is an absolute number that can be measured and compared, thus normally it is valid way to measure market share. Except one small and insignificant detail - LinuxCNC is available for free, so based on Your logic, LinuxCNC has 0% market share :)) So You have to do something else - surveys on mailing list or whatever, to assess actual situation. They have been working on Mach4 for a very long time (4 years??) and now they are clearly in a game of catchup. Mach4, as it will ship, has only been underway since the first of this year, and was demoed at the CNC workshop in June. It is intended the first version, Mach-lite, will ship in September. I am working on the Newfangled wizards for it and they are nearly ready. Hmm, yes, Andy asked very good question - what happened in those 3 years in-between? Obviously they were not focused on support of existing customers in forums, emails or chat or fixing whatever bugs there are in the app. All work is being done with cross platform tools, and OEM versions will be offered on linux and Mac. That was also shown at the workshop. Next chance to see it will be IMTS in September. Wonderful news for LinuxCNC community - having Mach on Linux will attract more CAD and CAM applications - my experience shows that it is one of the main points mentioned, when asked, why would they choose/ not choose LinuxCNC. Of course, there are solutions available, but people are not aware of them. This step will also tell potential audience that not only windows, but also Linux can be used for CNC applications. And now guess, what will be in the first lines, when somebody will search the web for keywords linux and cnc? That can only be labeled bullshit. There are many hardware vendors, all doing quite well selling their products with Mach. Some are selling more in a month that messa is selling in a year. Again, they are out there doing business, not chatting on mail lists. The fact that vendor is providing some hardware for Mach and opinion of particular vendor about the application might have very little correlation. It does not necessarily mean that they are happy with it. Has anyone ever asked them, what do they actually feel about Mach? I am sure that they would appreciate availability of source code to better understand, how that app works and so that they can better design their hardware and prepare better drivers/firmware. Actually that large number of vendors means that there are lots of unsatisfied needs for the customers that these vendors are trying to satisfy. IMHO this fact tells that Mach itself has lots of issues and hardware vendors are trying to solve/workaround them in their hardware/firmware. -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Emc-users] STOP RIGHT NOW...
Ron, Email below received from Brian on 8/14/2009 - V4 development had been going on for sometime by that date.. 8/14/2009 on the Mach3 Yahoo Group email list... Terry didn't tell you that we where able to speed up the Probing :) There are many things that we will see befitting from this that you would NEVER think would have any effect.. The fact is that Art and I both knew that there was a major amount of time dedicated to the OpenGL and now we can tell OpenGL to bugger off if it thinks it is going to take to much time away from Mach3. I have some OEM work that I need to get done and as soon as that is finished I am going to make an other big push on V4 now that I have the darn Toolpath worked out.. and I will also start to get the Lathe screen changed over to the new way of doing it.. Feeling good that we got a chance to report something good and that we are getting there! Thanks Brian Mach4, as it will ship, has only been underway since the first of this year, Now that.. is bullshit and you know it... Sure, I know Mach4 development has been restarted a couple of times, but don't tell me that the current rev is a complete rewrite since Jan.. They have work to do and dont sit around and post on mail lists or chat rooms. And these numbers are based on dollars spent, not surverys of mail lists. I've been working 60+ hours per week on 3 different contracts.. yet we both had time to write some commentary. It is intended the first version, Mach-lite, will ship in September. Good.. I am looking forward to it. But, as you know, Mach3 V4 has missed more than a couple of ship dates, (Don't prompt me to retrieve further emails) so if Sept. comes and goes and it doesn't ship, no one will go into shock... ;-) That can only be labeled bullshit. There are many hardware vendors, all doing quite well selling their products with Mach. Some are selling more in a month that messa is selling in a year. Again, they are out there doing business, not chatting on mail lists. No, that is an opinion. And you missed my point. Brian and crew have spent a lot of time trying to be everything to everyone and I'm not so sure that is possible in the current environment. By being everything to everyone, Brian dilutes his resources to the point where nothing gets done/finished. (My proof - 4 years working on Mach3 V4) He would be better off doing a Mach3 V4 LPT port version with Arts driver and an Ethernet Smoothstepper version so something works really well out of the box and then start supporting everyone else. Maybe that is really the plan anyway.. I'm not in a position to know. Some are selling more in a month that messa is selling in a year. I seriously doubt that. But what does that matter? I hope this 'mine is bigger than yours' drivel has been amusing to you all. Proof again that you missed my points. Oh well. Hang in there Ron, I know it has been a rough ride, but I sincerely hope that Mach3 V4 materializes as there are places were I may be able to use it. It has been frustrating as a user to watch Mach3 stagnate and wither. I am sure as an involved developer, the frustration has been even greater.
