Convert 8025T to PC Based Controller

[Fagor - Todd]

The best thing to do with an 8025 is upgrade to the 8035..... 8025 was our ugly duckling work horse control back in the 80's and early 90's, but it has run its course. Had a great run though.... those things were indestructable.... they'd get a little ugly with that old amber phosphorus monitor burn-in, but they just kept working.

But, we do offer a modern CNC upgrade to it, callled the 8035, which was specifically created to be an upgrade control from the 8025. It maintains the same size as the 8025.... and we supply it with the adapter cables. Hence, it is a 1 day retrofit. It just slides into where the current 8025 is, you plug in the adapters, converter some parameters and you're done. The 8035 utilizes a modern user interface (based upon the popular G-code sides of the 8055 series) and has a lcd color monitor.

These are sold by our Service Department and I know they have a special trade-in price right now.....for more information, call 800-423-2467 and speak with service department about this upgrade.

Normally you can replace the older DC motor drives with modern A-M-C versions, they offer all models of DC and BLDC, where the BLDC will run a DC brushed also, with BLDC you have the option of replacing the motors with BLDC type at a later date if needed.
The 8025 usually uses ±10vdc control which is compatible with the A-M-C.

Hi ;Thanks for the answer.
The problem is that I bought some drivers and can't use them until I know a bit about them, (pinouts, etc), and the people from Glentek are not very helpful
