Hi Hood and Terry and all
I must be blind or stupid, or something. No worries.
I know I have read about 'swapaxis' - somewhere, but for the life of me I cannot find it any more in any of my manuals. Is there a good primary reference to this, or is it a miasma of allusions plus a small PCB?
I have to replace my spindle as the one I have is dying (has died), and I am wondering about putting a full servo drive in. Yes, the spindle motor does have a 512 line encoder on it, even though all that has been used in the past was the Index pulse.
Mind you, I am happily single-point thread milling down to M2 and up to M24 with and ordinary spindle drive, but ... you know ...
Oh - yes. Mach3 and ESS.
Cheers
Roger
