Hello all. My experience is mostly with hobby grade stuff. Mach3, G540, UCNC, 3D printer board, Steppers, etc.
I have inherited a custom glue application machine that I wanted to repurpose as a router. It is driven by a mitsubishi servo system that I would like to get to talk to cnc control hardware and software I am familiar with and already in my workflow. Basically if I could figure out how to input step and direction signals to this thing then I think I can get started. Maybe that is not possible.
Below is what I am working with.
HG-KN73JK Servos x4
MR-JF-70BF Servo Amplifier x4
FX5U-32M Controller?
FX5-40SSC-S Controller?
GS2107-WTBD Touchscreen terminal
I read through the manuals I could find and all this stuff is really over my head. I would like to know if I can work with these parts or if I am better off trying to sell them and put in it place some familiar hardware. My guess is that this stuff is way overkill for my application. But it's what I have.
