Hey Guys,
I put together a cnc milling setup some time ago and at the time I only needed 3 axis. I got a Leadshine MX3660 driver for my steppers and have had no problems. I am now at the point where I want to add 3D printing to my table. How can I add a 4th axis while still using Mach3 and the Leadshine MX3660 driver? Any help would be great. Thanks guys.

Hi
It is possible to add one axis on MX3660 ,but this axis is different from other axes ,the speed is limit .the Max output pulse frequency is about 20Khz.
You can download the updated user manual from Leadshine website ,the link is below
