    Exclamation I need a THC for my Mach3 usb controller

    Hi,

    I have a Mach3 usb controller https://www.hobbytronics.co.za/p/979...ion-controller .

    The last thing I need to complete my build is a torch height controller, do you guys have any recommendations that will work with my controller board?

    Also, I am from South Africa, I cant find THC in my country. So from where can I import it?

    USB interface card has a delay for THC controlling.
    You can use Cap04 with CapStp11 for Stand Alone THC.

    For a low cost one do a search for Proma Torch Height Controllers. They have a couple different models that may work. Also just do a Ebay search. There are a number of different models and types listed. Also CandCNC has a lot of positive comments from folks who have their THC setup.
