    Servo Impact software

    I lost all software and manuals for my old Servo Impact mini-mill. The manufacturer asked 1500$ for a new disk. Dou you know a cheaper solution?
    Thanks,
    Iuliu

    servo impact software

    Thanks,
    This means I have to use another controller? The machine has encoders.
    I'll try to look on the web for Geko drives and Mach3.
    Best regards,
    Iuliu

    You will need to look at your motors to see if they are brushless or not.The Gecko drives are for brush type servos motors and stepper motors,I have the G320,s in my mini mill they work very good and easy to tune.The Servo Impact mini-mill website shows them to be brushless servos.
