I have recently upgraded my Taig manual mill to CNC. I noticed that on Taigs web site the CNC mills have this newer looking motor whereas I still have my older Franklin 1/5Hp motor that originally came with the mill some 7 years ago.
My question is, how necessary is it or to what advantage is there in upgrading the motor now that I am doing CNC milling and some engraving?
If there is a significant reason to upgrade, is there a motor that is highly recommended and one that Mach 3 can take full advantage of in terms of controlling spindle speeds?
Thanks all
John
