    Mystery Stepper motor driven FlexiCam

    I am in the process of buying an early model stepper motor driven Flexicam here in southern California but I cant find any model numbers or serial numbers on the machine. Can anyone help me figure out what the machine is? The Machine is driven by stepper motors and the table is 1,930mm x 1552mm. The table is cast aluminum and it sits on rubber isolators between the steel frame and the table. Does anyone know what model this machine is or have any experience with it?
    Thanks!

    from the looks of this it could be a fun project, it looks to be all there. I would consider a change to a more current windows controller like Mach 3 or Wincnc.

    it is not that difficult, can you take some pics of the control box open and up cloes to wire going into the drives, a bit of tracing will answer all your questions and do not unhook any of it without first photographing it well!!
