I just bought a large NCS24 HES lathe. It looks to me as it was a hydralicly powered manual lathe. I want to remove the hydralics and use servos and convert to CNC. What would you recomend for servos and drives?
Also what type of spindle motor and drive do I need?
I have experience with retrofitting CNC mills but never a lathe. I know the spindle speed is more critical in a lathe. I plan on running the lathe with
mach 3.
Thanks
