Denford Triac Mill

Dave, welcome

The short answer is 'probably, as far as stepper motors are concerned and power supply, but not the actual stepper drivers unless you can identify step/direction/enable lines to them'

The longer answer is 'it depends on the motors as to what drivers are likely to be applicable, and given motors and good spec drivers are cheap you might be better off replacing them with small faster more modern motors matched to a good driver - more reliability, less heat and noise, easier to get it working'

Dave,
Keep the power supply, motors, relay and spindle speed board and dump the rest.
Done about 10 or 12 now.




3 drivers from ARC on left, breakout board and logic power supply on right.

Old post .... sorry, but does this apply to the Denford Triac PC mill? I have the option to buy one, trying to determine costs to retrofit cheaply or splash out and do servos etc.
