Start a new topic on the "show your stuff" section of the forum, in the tittle put retrofit of whatever your machine is named, attach plenty of pictures of the existing machine and control and wiring with details on motors and drives, add whatever info you think might help, wait for replies.
There are plenty of us here who do a lot of retrofits and new builds, some do magnificent machines with details worth the "hall of fame", so plenty of help on tap, just ask.

Im considering upgrading the controller on our thermwood C67 5 axis machine. its form 2008 with the current controller being from 2011. Issue is that if it's done via thermwood its a full rebuild of the motors/drivers and controller box/ power supply with install is like 90-95k. We believe that with a little work and our current understanding we can do the upgrade ourselves of just the controller leaving our current motors still on the machine. Do you have any recommendations to use either linux or anything else? Id love to chat with you further about using linux and doing it correctly if you are willing to talk via email/ phone. thanks!

Hi, did you guys end up collaborating? I have. a C67 and am looking to upgrade the controller from the 2011 version it currently is at. At this point thermwood will only offer me a full conversion which is 90k and completely too much money. I have been looking at using Masso or centroid, but im not sure which is worth it if they even are and that's what brought me to Linux. Personally im not extremely knowledgeable on the software side, but hardware im good at and feel relatively confident I can actually continue to use the Siemens drivers motors and board that are currently on the machine. Id love to chat with either of you guys about it if you have a chance.

Where you at in Florida? How can I contact you?

JCLPCB delivered my self made PCB board. Testing ongoing. I had to order 5 boards. If anyone is interested in one, I have a few spares. Located in the Florida USA.

I would first reduce the acceleration in the INI and see if that makes a difference, just because that is quick and easy. (and you know exactly what you have changed, which might not be the case with tuning software).
That's probably not the final solution, but it may help narrow-down the problem description.

Yes, you are right, the tacho signal can be connected directly to the DC motor amplifier. I have only one amplifier for the 3 axes. So I can run them only in sequence.

Is this one of those systems that can only move one axis at a time?

Hi Andy,

thanks a lot for your response. I will try it and buy the recommended MESA Board.

Yes, you are right, the tacho signal can be connected directly to the DC motor amplifier. I have only one amplifier for the 3 axes. So I can run them only in sequence.

I hope, I will find out how to interpret the inputs (TTL ?) from the Heidenhain EXEs.

Is there any chance to get connected to the LinuxCNC developer in Münster?

Best regards

Hartwig
