    Usability of Encoder on DC Motor,

    Doing a retrofit of D&M 5 Lathe, adding Acorn CNC controller. It has the stock 90 vdc motor.

    Is it worth it to add a rotary encoder? Wondering if this will allow me to do threading?

    Also, any encoder recommendations would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Joey
