CS-Lab / CSMIO-IP/S or CSMIO-IP/A for a servo controlled router
« on: February 23, 2017, 06:48:58 PM »
I am planning to rebuild an old MultiCAM router to servo control. Now I start to realize that servo control is more than servo control. At least I have decided I want to use Mach 4 and a controller from CSMIO. But which should I use; the analog IP/A or the step/dir controller IP/S? Has any of you experience with setting up one of these with servo drives and can give me some recommendations? What will the drawback of a step/dir servo system be?
Which is the most affordable option, step/dir or analog control? Should I choose AC or DC servo? These are just a few of my questions. But anything that can point me in a direction is welcome.
