Currently a work in process I am in the process of replacing the control system for the cnc table with the functionalikty that it will be able to controll diferent machines such as a rotary tube cutter, plasma table, and a cnc lathe.
The plan is that it will have one master cable that can plug in to each machine and control it according to the drive parameters. The reason for it doing multiple rolls is that I do not have the money to make a independent control system for each machine. the current design speciation is that it will be able to control up to a 5 axis machine with 5 NEMA 34 stepper motors 2 servos and 2 rotary encoders. I am current working on writing up the control code for each machine that it will control.
