Biesse Rover 18 CNC router

If you are using Mesa hardware, I wouldn't bother with requiring a parallel port for your computer purchase (you won't be using it.)

Hi Jonasza,

I have done some retrofits on Biesse machines including two Biesse 346, the big mama's. Its not that difficult and a Rover 18 should be easy. Contact me if you want some help designing the retrofit. Id be glad to help.

/EDIT I only use mesa cards on my retrofits.

The Biesse 18 is a great machine.
I've cleaned my Biesse 18 and it looks like nev.
All the hardware is in mint condition.
Only the Vacuum caps and the cupholders have some little damage, but that's not a problem.

In the mean time I was able to gather a lot of information about the machine, like the electrical drawings.
Product information about the spindle, the spindle driver, the servo's, the servo drivers, ...

need information and help on retrofits biesse rover 16
