Can someone run their expert eyes over this one? http://muck-solutions.com/?page_id=186 May need translating. I've taken a shine to it as it looks more intuitive than the ELS one, I've messaged them to see if a kit or schematics are available for the latest version as I think I'd like to build it. It also uses a multi pulse encoder. |

The development of the Zyklen controller is on the german CNCecke.de forum, which is currently down for a servo upgrade. Seems a pretty nice controller. It wont run G code, but if you use your lathe for oe off parts and normally work thorugh the MDI, it would probably do 99% of what you'll need. I used a schmidt trigger to clean up the optical gate for mine spindle indexer, and never had a problem with the signal. Mark |

Thanks. I'm really only looking for an electronic leadscrew type setup for the lathe, and adding a cross feed also, The ELS and zyklen both seem to fit the bill, but the zyklen looks a little neater and more user friendly. |
