Journeyman 320- convert or junk it?
I have a journeyman 320, wih a Miltronics Centurion IV control. The machine has been acting up, and this control is an obsolete unit, I'm told.
Is this practical to convert to an Ajax control, for someone of limited electronics ability?
The machine base itself is very robust, and the ways are in very good condition.
It has Gould servos on all three axes, tach on the motors, belt drive to the screws, with encoders on the screws.
Any thoughts appreciated.
