    Default old machine cnc

    good afternoon people

    Unless my phone is playing tricks you posted in a Place dedicated to Master Cam, you will probably get more eyes on the topic elsewhere.
    You didn’t really provide a lot of info, how much money are you looking to spend? can do any of the work building the control? , or do you need a pre wired system(expensive)

    good afternoon
    I wanted to restore the machine, it's a three-phase machine where the engines are running.

    I wanted to use the same motors and replace the controllers, but I do not know if it's possible

    Are the x y and z-axis powered by stepper motors if so it shouldn't be too difficult to control those with new stepper drivers. You said it is a three-phase machine I assume that means that the spindle is three phase you could control that with a VFD. You could use either an Arduino, Linux CNC, or Mach 3 to send signals to the stepper drivers it depends on what features you want and how much you are willing to spend.
