Hood Thanks for the reply
Sounds like it's going to be envolved and complicated to get the machine running, would the machine's servos have encoders already on them or somewhere in the machine ?

Hi guy's
Need a little help i have a Lagunmatic milling machine with a dyna path control something is down in the controller and dyna path was less then helpful so now i want to remove the controller and run it with my MAch 3, question is can i use the same drivers that are in the machine as they seam to be ok also can i use an interface board such as  CNC4PC to run the drives.

 Next question how do I actuate the direction on the drives to test the servos out when i installed geckos on my lathe i did actuate the drives moving the steppers just can't remember which wire and i don't want to fry anything if i can help it.

Thanks
Dennis

Hi Glen
Thanks for the reply I do have LIC for both LC and Mach 3, Mach 3 is currently running my lathe and I do process my drawing's through Bob cad I have been waiting for the guy's to fix LC to import DXF files and then run through Mach 3 to my lathe so I can eliminate a few of the steps to get the job done.

Hi Brian and Art
 I haven't checked back for a few month's and was wondering if you guy's got around to working on the lathe part of the program yet.
