Hi,

I just bought a Kondia K-76 and I would like to update the Dynapath System 10 to a Camsoft Pro with a CS18420 motion card. My z axis encoder keeps crashing and I think I need to replace it. The machine has a RS23 500 40/5 L on it now. Can I just replace the encoder with a similar unit? Or will I need to update the encoder for the conversion??? I'd like to fix the z axis issues before I start the upgrade...

This is my first stab at CNC so I have very little knowledge..

Thanks...

I would need to know more to answer for sure. Probably be fine.

My son has a Dynapth. I can see upgrading to Camsoft would require very little new hardware.

I'd suggest you review your application with the great techs at Camsoft.

I'll also mention that installing Camsoft is a bit too difficult for those not familiar with CNC application installations. Its a great product, just too much to learn. I'd suggest you hire help.
