General Mach Discussion / Re: Syil C6 Lathe thread?

OK have just done a Google and it seems that they recommend Mach for it so yes it will run with Mach. It does however say the spindle is NOT controlled by the CNC but that doesnt mean it will not thread. If there is a sensor fitted then it will be able to thread, if not then you should be able to fit one quite easily. What you would need to do is fit a disc with a slot in it and get an optical sensor and then connect that into Mach so that Mach knows what RPM the spindle is doing.
