Hi

I've been considering turning my homemade 3 axis into a 5 axis CNC with a B/A head. However i've recently been looking at secondhand ABB robot arms like the S3 and thinking why dont I get one of these and run with with a modern CAD CAM set up.

Is this possible to upgrade the controller software to run mastercam, mach3 and how easy is it to do this?

thanks for any ideas of links
