I still have hopes to use pathoilot, I suppose the reason I was leaning towards Pathpilot was its excellent exposure on YouTube for its interface and appearance and praise. I would very much like to avoid doing that again as it not only is a terrible waste of money but also time for refitting and rewiring everything.
But I know that it will be a worthwhile commitment to make.Īs an avid user with alot of experience and time with Linux, what parts would you fill your electronics cabinet with?Īs an example, I bought enough parts with mach3 to make 3 machines based on various tranes of thought from cost to performance and reliability before I finally wound up with a system I was happy with. It will be a very steep learning curve I have a feeling and it is all a little overwhelming. Furthermore, I have never seen a Linux based OS in person and will need to invest time to research a good system to run it on. Being completely new to LinuxCNC I have as many questions as I did 6 years ago with mach3 knowing nothing about DIY cnc. As stated this is a blank canvas which I figured would be the best time to ask these questions of the professionals. Thank you for your input, I am not opposed to starting with linuxcnc and learning my way through.

These will be various stages of the build and I will of course start with basic Lathe functionality and grow from there but want to ask the experts what they would be buying to avoid pitfalls or short comings as needs grow and to make the transition as a mach3 users to linuxcnc and Pathpilot as painless as possible without having to delve too deeply into programming to initially get the machine up and running?Īny and all input is greatly valued and appreciated! 3 phase AC inverter duty spindle motor and Vector duty VFD drive. What would you be buying for a scratch built control setup that will handle the following machine hardware and functions:
My question to all is if you were in my position. In doing so I decided the best course of action would be to use it on a new Lathe cnc conversion I am building and therefore have complete flexibility to acquire the best hardware components for the machine. I am a long time mach3 user bit want to make the change to Linuxcnc and Pathpilot.
