Boxford v190 cnc

[depronman]

Paul, if the 190 is fully function with the boxford software would you still recommend changing it to linuxcnc?

If you have the boxford software and it’s all functional then maybe not
I’ve never tried the boxford software myself. I was told it was about £600 and the boxford would deal with educational establishments so even if my pockets had been deep enough then boxford would not sell it to me anyway

Also bear in mind that it was aimed at education as against industry and as such may be far from std in terms of G code etc
Are there any post processors that spit out boxford std g code ? As without this your life will be much harder

Linuxcnc is at least current and if there are any hardware issue then the electronics being replaced with new stepper drivers etc makes it all new and compatible
This is the root that I chose but I didn’t have the boxford software as an option
