Title: Is MACH able to run on this hardware?
Post by: gerardo.dapia on May 17, 2016, 11:07:33 PM

Hi guys,

Im new around here.
Im working on a ABS Plastic milling machine proyect, for thermoforming parts, in Argentina.

Can Mach3/4 run this machine? (attachment)
The idea is to have a rotational bed, a Z axis, only one position axis, and a tilt axis.

This milling is always tangent to the surface of the part.

It's not so different to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPsZZ4raJHw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPsZZ4raJHw)
And the reference for this aplication is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GyQQNgv7XE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GyQQNgv7XE)

I really appreciate replys.

Regards, Gerardo.

I think the answer is Yes, Mach3 can do it (but it has yet to be independently proven).

You have linked to one of Richard's videos and he has devoted much time to developing a plugin for Mach3 and one of his related threads is here; http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,32107.0.html
