General Mach Discussion / Building a Commercial WJ gantry. Need Motion/controller recomendations
« on: January 06, 2008, 06:05:25 AM »
First off i am building a 2-axis waterjet.
we have a camsoft/galil setup right now with an ICM 2900 breakout board.
I am duplicating this setup and i am tryiing fo figure out if i should go with Mach 3 and if i do what card is the most robust.
Galil/ Gecko etc.
Im powering some servos and would like to hit them with a analog signal.
I also need accell/decel control.] like camsofts "notso"SmartPath. Its actually not so bad itself.
this functionality allows the moves to adjust within the curved geometry at predetermined math relationship between curve diameter and a pecentage of the normal travel speed specified.
Given the camsoft pricing ii am willing to pay a developer that can help us out with this. Were not trying to go totally homebrew here.
THanks for the comments.
