Acramatic 2100 Help

[john333]

Hello I'm new to the forum and need help. I just bought a Prolight 5000 mill that came with an old Acramatic 2100 control. The control had a Cincinnati logo on it so it seems it is not original to the mill.

My problem is the hard drive is physically missing from the Acramatic 2100. I think I can get a new hard drive but the software might be a problem. Dave Lyle at Siemens said he would look into it for me but it would be about $1200 if it is available at all. I think there must be original drive images floating around out there where if some where, if some one could point me in the right direction I would really appreciated it.

Failing getting the A2100 to run the mill can anyone recommend a DC servo controller that I could use to run the with Mach3 or similar software?

Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
John

There is a guy on Ebay that sells the hard drives with the software loaded for around $150.
