I posted in the mill section my powerpath 15 yaskawa sigma 5 drive/servo conversion. This is not a mod for the faint of heart...but it will save money in the long run. Just wanted to show you guys its possible. I got tired of blowing 2200 on servo rebuilds and 1400 on drive repairs only to have the parts fail in less than 5 years....there is always a weak link in repaired drives (the age of the rest of the parts that were not replaced)

Head on over to the mill section and check it out. The machine had the old yaskawa cacr-sr drives in it. sigma 5 stuff is quieter and smoother.
