This is my first time posting to the forum but have spent a little while browsing and must say that there is a lot of usefull info here. Thanks....
I've searched the forum for cable info and did not find what I was looking for so.. here goes. I'm currently retrofitting my Jet milling machine for CNC. I have most everything to finish it but was wandering about the cable for the servos and encoders. I've searched the web for a single cable solution (per axis) and have found several cables designed for servo control. What I am looking at is 3 conductor 16AWG for the servo and 4 conductor 19AWG individually shielded for the encoder all housed in one housing shielded with copper braid. Is anyone using anything like this. Everyone I've talked to uses two cables because of interference issues. will these cables work? Any help would be appreciated.
