    Lightbulb Change - from linear path control to CNC path control

    Hi,

    I have bought a Maho MH 400P - see following



    I would like to have changes - from linear path control to CNC path control


    1) Which electronics (Gecko, Rutex, ???) should I use?

    2) Which Servo Motor (in each case for the axle X & Y & Z) should I use?

    - the Servo Motors are missing



    Thank you in advance - Sorry, I am an electronics beginner :banana:

    PS: The software Mach3 is set

    Do you have three motorized (servo) axis right now? If so you have the motors and amps.
    You would need to know however what type of control the amps have analogue/step&dir?
    Is there steppers or servo motors.
    I assume it is just point to point positioning at present and you want to do interpolated motion?
    Depending on the above, You may just need the software.
