Hello.
I lost my head and bought 3 big industrial machines with 10 years old for a good price, they have worked for 6 years. All have fanuc motors, amplifiers, spindle controllers and so on. One have fanuc 21i-t and the others 18i-t. I have power on the machines and the servo amplifiers went to a ready state and the controller also seams to be working fine, but now I started to clean the machines and will probably simplify the machines. Since I am confortable with mach3, and not with the fanuc controllers, I am thinking in replacing the fanuc controller with mach3 in case that I will have problems in putting the machines to work (something broken or impossible for me to putting it to work).
It is a straight approach to use all the fanuc present in the machine exept the controller?
Motors and amplifiers are ok, so I would only replace the controller. Is this possible and recommended ?
Thank you all.
