    Controller dilemma...



    What am I giving up by doing the following?? I bought a cnc Knee mill in good condition. It has a 10 year old servo Anilam 3300 MK control system. The mill I’m using now has Gecko G320 drivers using Mach 3. I don’t want to deal with the conversational controller on the new Knee mill. I was thinking of giving up the Anilam controller and using Mach with a G320 drivers. Is the motion control of an industrial controller like the Anilam superior to say mach III and G320 drivers? If So will I notice the difference in a cut part?

    Thanks for the help
