BP Interac 1 And BP Interac 2

[hancockj]

We have a BP Interac 2 with a Heidenhain TNC151 control. We have the opportunity to purchase a BP Interac 1 with a TNC2500 control at scrap
price. Can anyone tell me if any of the electrical components will interchange
between the two?(Monitor,Drive cards,etc....)

Motors, drives are stronger on the Interact 2.
Controls are different.

Not much from the donor except head parts, 24VDC power supplies.

Thanks for the information Machinetek. I appreciate it very much. You did
not mention the monitor. Do you think it may be compatible? If it is, it
would make the purchase worth doing, just for it alone.

you didn't say whether it was a MK1 or M2, if it is a MK2 could you please find out if it has an intact MTI-1 spindle drive card, I desperately need one, thanks Brian

Monitors are different.
