The answer would have to be yes because Tormach sells an operator panel which breaks these out to knobs.

G52 isn't in Tormach's documentation, but does appear to be in LinuxCNCs documentation, so maybe it'll behave?
Does anyone have a suggestion on accessing the X and Y ballscrew nuts on a 770M with the full enclosure? I'm guessing pulling the sump out and laying under the machine, but I'd rather ask before I...
We've all seen the categories listed on our insert containers, or the cutting conditions in references.
Sandvik and a few others expand upon it:...
Others have suggested the shear hog, my suggestion is tool holders for APxT1135 insert geometry. This is a Mitsubishi Carbide insert geometry. Their APGT1135 insert is GREAT in aluminum. To cut a...
The additional Y travel on the 1100 should be ranked pretty highly in your comparison.
My experience with 5 axis has all been with Siemens 840Ds. Issues I've seen have all been related to machine builders not following Siemens' documentation, standards, and having things set...
I prefer controller.
What is your controller? What is your machine?
I've found a lot of performance difference depends on if the inverse kinematics is done in the controller or if that is being done in CAM.
The Tormach xsTECH router is in the same price range as the Taig machines and at a quick glance looks to have similar specs.
The Tormach 440 is probably the biggest machine that fits that description, but it's $7000. It'd hold its value well, though, and you'll be able to keep your tooling if you go up to a 770M or 1100M....
I just moved shop and had to disassemble and reassemble my enclosure. The butyl tape doesn't seal well to begin with and was an absolute nightmare to try to reseal. I ended up removing it all and...
Isn't that an 1100MX with a toolchanger and a TM-1 without a tool changer?
You are correct. That's not a comparison.
Considering that they're using a BeagleBone, I wonder if they're packaging Machinekit similar to how Tormach packages LinuxCNC to make pathpilot.
They initially said 4th quarter of 2018. Most recently "this winter", which could mean as late as the 1st quarter of 2019. So I guess the best answer would be "soon?".
I won't go to Facebook.
I believe the MX machines are getting a different BT30 spindle provisioned for a PDB and ATC.
I'm wonder how much lack of preventative maintenance or poor operating practice has to do with pullout problems.
For the time being, yes, manual tool changing. I've got a 770M. It's my understanding that with the MX machines Tormach intends on doing an ATC with the BT30 spindle and that I would be able to...
I went R8/TTS. I'm wating for Tormach's BT30 support to mature.
There are 110V input VFDs.
This thread on PM seems to be applicable, and was why I decided on Permatex Gasket maker:

The directions only specify using it between the tray and base. The enclosure doesn't come with any more butel tape and relies on a tight fit between mating surfaces and flanges. There's also slotted...
I got my 770M up about 2 weeks ago.
Right now I'm fighting enclosure leaks. This weekend I'm going to disassemble the entire enclosure and reassemble with some automotive gasket sealant.
After...
It's for LinuxCNC.

Anything worth doing is worth doing right.
My intention is Mesa, but right now I'm just running my steppers via a parallel port.
I'm more talking about the real time kernel being picky about what CPU it likes.

Linux's real time kernel offerings seem to be very picky about the hardware they like. First step is to make sure you have hardware it agrees with.

I just got done with a linuxcnc installation on my sieg kx3. I'm willing to help once you're to that point.

I've written a short parametric program for doing vise clamps out of bar stock. I'm new to this and am wanting to learn and implement best practices for programming in G-code. Would anyone be willing...
