Thanks much, first i wanted to let you know that your website is great. give the people who run it for you a raise. Second, even though I asked you about 2 axis, maybe thats only for measurement, but ill pay the extra 500 for 4 axis capability down the road. I had another idea, would you have any software that mimics the contropl of a cnc (fanuc, yasnac) on the screen of a windows pc? Would you even need that, or can you do everything you need with motion control software from you? By adding that feature, wouldnt the traditional setup is rendered totally obselete? (servo-->motion control board-->CNC control) I am really excited about this technology. if you guys have stock, put me down! One more question, if you have software and hardware for automation and measurement, wouldnt it be possible for me to build my own cnc from a bare casting (auto pallet changer), add all required
hardware, but also include a robot to load the pallet, and to measure the piece (can robots use cmm equip[those little red ball things, dont know their name] and is the software to run them compatible with robots?), all while your sitting in the office. Alerts could tell you when you are in danger of losing tolerance. then you come out and change the tool. Im sure they already have that, but wouldnt using a powerful (and fast) pc and servo motors make the machine lightning quick? sorry for the bombardment of questions, but im only 21 and i would rather be sitting in the office sipping on starbucks rakin it in sitting in a lazy boy than standing in front of a machine getting coolant sprayed in my face. anyways, thanks in advance. (in chicago, the weather is so bad all i do is stay inside and dream up new stuff ha ha)Do you think I have a pretty good understanding for only surfing the web for about a week researching?
PS->i did find a competitor that is claiming to be the only company that is doing this. Set em straight. their name is Direct motion control (specialize in 5 axis, maybe you should have 5 axis boards too)
