    What encoders would you recommend for "Bridgeport Series II Interact 2" CNC conversio

    I am doing a conversion of a Bridgeport Series II Interact 2 mill to another control (EMC).

    My question is what are my options to replace existing sinusoidal encoders with incandescent light bulbs.

    I would like to find something that would fit into the existing envelope and would work reliably.

    Thanks

    I am current doing a conversion to an Interact 412, using HEDS Encoders. This is what I did to get them to 'bolt' on.
