    Control Software / hardware Reality check

    My current understanding is that Mach3 combined with Ajax MPU11 Motion Controller & GPIO4D 3rd Party Drive Interface, & PLC will allow me to;

    1. use servos and ‘close the loop’. Understand that I will need servo drives also.
    2. I should be able to use this to control a spindle inverter also.
    3. Should be able to add a 4th axis

    In other posts Wincnc was reported as better software, any info on cost?
