Need help finding servo controllers
I have searched to no avail, and cannot find a controller that fits my needs.
I have a Mitek VBM-50 Bed Mill that I would like to retrofit from the current Acramatic 2100 to a more updated solution.
The only problem I am having is finding servo controllers.
I need controllers rated for 12.9 amp continuous / 23 amp peak and 180VDC that can be controlled by a step/direction signal. All of the controllers I have looked at that take step/direction commands won't handle the voltage or current necessary...
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

More updated than the A2100?
I have 3 A2100 powered lathes and they are great. I wish they still made them.
I also have 1 machine that is running Mach 3 and servos.
I would expect that if you complete the project, you would not consider it an update. Just my opinion.
Mach 3 is awesome. It is definately more versatile than most commercial controls, but it can't compete on the performance side yet. Hopefully in the future.
If you do gut the A2100 please send me an e-mail, [email protected]
I would be interested in the whole system, if the price is reasonable.
Thanks,
Kent
