You should just put an encoder on your lathe spindle and setup your
configuration as usual for a lathe. The BBB has several hardware
encoder inputs, at least one of which is readily usable given the
typical pinout mappings. It is also possible to use the PRU for
"soft" encoder inputs if the frequ

My final goal would be to have threading with lathe. So i am trying to find
some way how this could be possible done. Because i didnt find much
information about encoders or examples on beaglebone and machinekit how to
use them.

As Bas says they are not suitable for spindle motors, unless you have
some sort of hybrid spindle requirement
that involves positional placement (indexing etc.)
You can use the step generator to drive a 'speed board' which controls a
spindle.
Set the stepgen to velocity mode and the speed board

My guess is that a stepper motor is not suitable for a spindle. Mostly because

Hello
Has anyone tried setting up stepper motor as spindle with machinekit. Maybe
you have some example configs or examples.
Thanks for help.
