    From the top of head in no particular order, the following support turn/single point threading-
    Pokeys
    PMDX
    KFlop
    CS-Labs (although I think you may need the higher end controller with an MPG module, and not the cheaper controller)
    Centroid


    IIRC Pokeys (and possibly PMDX) will work with a basic single/multislot sensor, whereas the rest require a proper quadrature output encoder.

    Does anyone do a good Stand Alone Controller for lathes?
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D

    When I was looking at the Chinese standalone controllers, I'm sure some were available in turn versions.
