Hi all,

I have no expertise in cnc machines but have a Dahlagren one which is a little old. I have with it a control box. I would like to know if there would be anybody out there who may be able to help or would be kind enough to point me in the right direction to having my machine repaired or tell me how to get it to run on new software if that would be possible. Somebody gave me this machine but I dont know how to make heads or tails out of it but would love to use it for my work.

Is it a Dahlgren? If so does it have a TSR-80 controller? These things are ancient and I seriously doubt it would run anything new. You might have to go down the road of upgrading the drive controllers and possibly the steppers and run it from a PC. Can you post some photos? It would be nice the see the old fella.
