LinuxCNC with Realtime Ethernet controller

Hi phillc54,
Thank you for your information，I'd like to try。

BR!

Have you tried it? How it went? I am also thinking about this...
I think servo with encoder and ethernet should be enough - does such motors exist at all?

Yes they do, i have seen and serviced a new Italian manufactured 5 axis machine that used TCP (transmission control protocol - it is what internet works on as communication) on all drives and spindle control. I am very capable in electronic and other stuff, but that machine was a good example of "using really good part to make a bad machine" although the machine works, it messed up after 4 months of light use and needed a 4500 euro parts, but it is by for all intents and purposes unserviceable.
Regards,
Tom
P.S.
Zivko, pa di si kuco stara ???

Can you please describe system - what was the controller, has it supported ethercat?
Do you maybe have some schema of this 5 axis system that you can publish? If not can you just disclose what were the component used?

Well Zivko, in a word no.
This was a 12 ton heavy industrial woodworking machine owned by a furniture factory about 400 meters far from my house, i was told it costed 68000 euros, and the owner is a POS so i never went there again although i got called twice. I hate people with money who think they can buy other people, and the irony of it was at that time i was driving a much better car than he was !!!
Back on topic, the hardware side of the machine was nice and functional but way to big for what it was capable, but the electronic side was to damn messed up ( proven by several failures inside of a year and no warranty since it was bought in Italy but it is used in Kosovo, so the failures were costly).
