I have a lot of casting iron being ground every day around the machine.
That grinding dust goes everywhere. You shouldn't have a cnc machine let alone a PC near it. The grinding area should be vented properly.

today i did a bald but working trick to the control PC. I laminated its hard disk, mb, pci cards etc with some polythene and cello tape. Just the PSU and processor heat sink is bare naked. And wow it worked. Today i ran it for a couple of hours but it didn't do any stupid or unwanted move neither it restarted automatically.
I will see if this setup can work for an 8 hour shift and will post the result.
