General Mach Discussion / Re: help with new controller

Thank you for your information, what would you recommend?

Mike

Hi Mike,

Basically any controller where the manufacturer offers full customer support (not Chinese) - I would not like to recommend anything in particular because everybody's needs may differ but having a few different controllers the Warp9 ESS + Gecko G540 is still my favourite.

Hi Mike,

The NVEM controller is not a good choice.

Hi Tejas Prajapati,

Unfortunately Novusun is one of the businesses listed in our Hall of Shame for Mach3 Licence violation. As a result this forum does not support assistance with any of it's products unless you are a genuine Mach3 or Mach4 license holder.

Not certain I am understanding you correctly but…

In the Mach3 MDI screen you could use Local System Rotate set to 45 Degrees or if you want more complex positioning you could use G68… in your Gcode file.

(User Regen Toolpath to view the work rotation)

Mach SDK plugin questions and answers. / Re: OEM (Auto Tool Zero) button in Mach3?

« on: November 22, 2019, 01:16:04 AM »

The Auto Tool Zero button on the 1024.set screen is a VB coded button and does not have an OEM code. The button's  function can be changed within Mach from Operator / Edit Button Script or, by using a screen editor, a hotkey can be assigned.

General Mach Discussion / Re: cheap 4 axis controler on ebay

« on: November 21, 2019, 06:51:05 AM »

Has anyone tried one of these cheap motion controllers advertised on ebay for approx £20.00
if so, could they be used by a numpty/human or do i need a boff.

£20.00 

The cheap Chinese stuff seldom works as expected so you may need to be a magician to ever get it working at all.

Building or Buying a Wood routing table.. Beginnners guide.. / Re: x y AXIS ORIENTATION

« on: November 21, 2019, 01:58:37 AM »

It all depends where the operator stands in relation to the machine as most post processors compile the Gcode with the X Axis 'side to side' and the Y Axis 'front to back' (in relation to the operator).

Mach3 under Vista / Re: Requesting help on emergency Mach 3 install

« on: November 20, 2019, 10:15:06 AM »

Are there any resources/tutorials for this procedure on the Gerber Sabre 408?

I am sure someone will have converted the Sabre 408 to operate from Mach3 or Mach4 but I am not aware of any tutorial on this or any other website. Perhaps other members here may have some information that may be of assistance.

If you check-out the Gecko website it has much product and application information which may give you an insight into what is required.
https://www.geckodrive.com/products

In my opinion...
The process of converting the control system of an existing machine requires quite some technical knowledge and it is not something that could easily be completed within a tight schedule. There are businesses which will undertake the conversion for you, it will not be cheap, but perhaps that is the way forward.
