    Connectors for CNC Mill Refit

    I am redoing a Bridgeport Prototrak Plus machine with new servos, encoders, controllers and Mach3. I want to use good connectors for the whole thing - so I plan to replace the existing connectors on my Pacific Scientific motors. Same for the position encoders (dual feedback to the controller). Anyway, what is a good line of reliable connectors that are reasonably priced? Some will need to be able to handle the high peak current of the servos. Suggestions?

    Look at the Amp-Tyco CPC line, they are the plastic version of the military MS connectors, but alot cheaper.

    You should be able to get them from DigiKey, they come in all number of pin counts.
