Controller Comparison

[JAZZCNC]

Ok well this as been on my mind to do this for while now so what you all think.?

I've got reasonable collection of popular Controllers laying around now so thinking to do a comparison test (video)on same machine with same drives etc.
This will be spare Router I've got kicking about so will obviously be Router biased. Could be servo or stepper driven not sure yet.

The controllers I've got are.
Cslabs IP-M, IP-S, IP-A (IP-A might be separate test on servo motor on bench) (Mach3 and Simcnc only)

UC300USB with PMDX126 BOB (Mach3 or UCCNC)
UC300ETH with UB1 BOB

Centroid Acorn (CNC12 Mill only)

Smooth stepper ESS, USB with PMDX 126 BOB (Mach3 only)

Pokeys 57U, 57CNC (mach3 only)

CNCUSB Mk3/4 (Planet CNC)

DDSCV1.1 3 4 axis offline motion controller

Might Knock up a Linux cnc with Mesa cards (when get them)


Obviously this will take a while to setup and done between health/work commitments plus seen as it's -4c in workshop won't be until warmed up a bit so don't hold your breath's or put off buying for current project you got going on. However it will happen, might just take me couple months to get all together.

So if you lads have any requests to see any specific comparison etc or have any Code you want testing then shout up.
