I can move the computer >and controls from, my milling machine to my homemade cnc drill press to the >lathe or to my engraving machine. >If you decide to set up your shop with cnc you may find that a mobile >rack system similar to the one in my shop is the way to go. Note that >in addition to the video display, the computer that is a 486-66, a mouse >with pad and a keyboard protected from chips with plastic , that I have >two controller mounted in the rack. Above the keyboard is my 3 axis >manual/cnc 2.5 amp 24VDC controller. It runs my mill in the manual mode for >flycutting or single pass operation using the stepper motors as a power >feed. The axis is selectable as well as direction and speed. With a flip of >the switch I can shift to CNC. Below the keyboard is the Ah_HA system 6 amp >4 axis controller. I standardized my connector so I can shift from my >controller to the ah-ha system. The Ah_Ha system with the Artisian Software >is really powerful. > >Pictures are as follows: > >Mauch2_CNCCOMP.JPG the cnc and computer mounted in the rack >Mauch2_CNCDRILL.JPG my homemade CNC drill press >Mauch2_MILLRACK.
