Hi there,
I bought an ESS this year and I have already made a small setup with 5 TB6560 drivers, 5 small 1Amp stepper motors and 2 LPT25 breakoutboards. I've tried a 3 axis config and also a 5 axis Head/Head config, I had 2 sample pieces modeled in Rhino for both setups. The 3 axis works just fine, and the 5 axis simulatneous milling seems to work.
All the 5 motors XYZ-BC seem coreographed, but I'm not shure yet if this a real 5axis head-head 3d milling maching working properly. I'll have to try my Gcode on a similar machine to see how it responds.
The ESS is easy to config and has lots of documentations on warp9 website.
Cheers!
