I hope this is the right forum its at least 50% I think
I have my gantry style milling machine 90 percent done and started wiring
The Emerson 4000 Axima 4 axis controller to the En 204 and En 208 drives.
With some 750 kilowatt MGM 316 drives one with a brake for the x axis.
I had a few questions about the installation and gave them a call
emersonct.com they also go by control techniques.
Talked to a nice guy basically he said the Axima is not a CNC controller
And I need a CNC controller and software to do what I want.
The servos and drives seem like good parts I would like to keep them on
I would just like to find the controller and software like the guy suggested.
And get this thing finished I have seen some people using this brand servo here
And most likely know just what I need please help.
Let me know what you think would be the best controller and software.
Something I could use a program like Mastercam for creating stuff
Would also be a plus feel free to request any other information?
You might need for considering candidates.
I am willing to send links to pictures or whatever is needed.
This will be a great help for me and
if there is anything I can do in return
Let me know
the axima manuals
emersonct.com/download_usa/Manuals_AXIMA.htm
the en manuals
emersonct.com/download_usa/Manuals_En.htm
I found some threads on the servos and sort of similar drives but nothing on the
Controllers or software they where using.
if you know one point me in the right direction thanks
