Harrison M300 cnc

[keith wainwright]

I have just got my hands on a very nice Harrison M300 CNC with a very old hydenhine Control box . The box does not work but the guy who sold it to me got the machine to work using another box and it works very well . So I need to convert to mach3 ? Question 1 to all the experts , can I use the existing drive motors also can I use the drives . If not what size stepper / servo motors do I need . That's all for now until I strip things a bit and find more detail thanks.

Before you make pictures and give us the exact numbers and producer of the electronic parts, no one can say what you can use further. In many old machines, the parts were controlled with +/- 10V. In this case, you can use it, with a new controller board.

Hello I just got My Harrison M300 CNC into my workshop and I have exposed all the servo motors ,encoders and drives Do any of you out there know if I can run it with Mach3via some sort of BOB .
I have a list if part numbers 1 Z axis motor is a SEM Permenant magnet DC motor Type 30E4-30 with constant stall torque of 2.1nm 80 volts pulse amps 22 Xaxis is also sem type 30H4 constant stall torque 1.1 nm 120 volts . Both z and x drives are Anilam model GA4561-7L . THE X encoder is an anilam L25G-250-ABZ-7406B AND THE Z ENCODER IS ANILAM L25G-200-ABZ-7406R-SPTO2-S. If all this makes any sort off sense at all please help . Initially I need to know can the mach3 thing be achieved then I can figure out with help how.I have now got 3 small lathes running of mach3 using steppers but this is new to me . Thanks
