Kern/DMT CD320 was created by justincase79
Hello everyone
I have gotten my hands on a 1998 Kern/DMT CD320 cnc lathe in kind of a rough state. My plan is to tear it down, clean out all the old gunk and then get new servos and electronics to allow me to run it on 3 phase 230v. But before I start spending money I have a couple of questions I was hoping someone around here could help me with.
1. Do anyone have any kind of technical drawings or manuals for this machine. I have tried emailing DMT a couple of times, but I get no reply.
2. I am trying to decide if I should go for Ethercat servos or Mesa + pulse, any thoughts on the best solution? I have been able to find suitable hw for both alternatives on aliexpress, so main concern is linuxcnc compatability/problems.
Any input is greatly appreciated, regards from Norway.
