I have an older mill that I want to control with Mach3 software. I have one machine running with Mach 3 now.
The machine I do not have running I need to make or buy a controller. I currently use parallel port to the computer with the machine I have running, and would like to stay with this.
The machine I do not have running has:
Z STEPPER (6-WIRE, 3V 1.25 AMP, 1.8 DEGREE, 2-PHASE)
X AND Y STEPPER (6-WIRE, 5.5V 4 AMP, 1.8 DEGREE, 2-PHASE)
I have searched the internet, and all the controllers I see do not handle the 4 amp motors
Maybe I should replace all the stepper motors with others and get a controller that will work together.
Suggestions appreciated.
