    I had nothing but trouble with Mach 3. I switched to uccnc for the Mill but I'm thinking of masso for the lathe. UCCNC is awesome though. It's got everything you need for a 3 axis machine in one of the simplest layouts and you can use an XBox control for an MPG.

      The tool changer logic (program) is included when you purchase a Masso CNC controller. I can show a video how it is setup.

    Hi Ethan ! Great Video in regards to your recommendation of the MASSO CNC Controller ! Looking at purchasing one myself ! However ! Can you tell me more about your 16 Tool Automatic Tool Changer, and where you got it from, as I'm also looking to purchase a Sieg SX2.7 Bench Mill, and would like to reproduce your current setup with the MASSO CNCN Controller ! Also ! Will you be making a video on your current setup, showing how the system performs an automatic tool change ? With kindest regards ! GCS CNC Group.

    Nice video... I have been wanting to purchase a Masso, but have cold feet as they are not responding to my pre sales questions. My main concern was about their controller's issue with either key bounce or delayed recognition of a key stroke, which would be a real frustrating thing to deal with.

    I have a machine that i am going to be retrofitting that has almost identical tool changer on it. I am thinking of going with the Masso controller and would need the same help as you. did they have to do some custom code or were you able to do it with the standard control? do you use spindle orientation?

      Hi Mark, Im just in the process of updating all my SolidWorks files. What machine do you have? It would be a small task to adapt to other machines as it was designed purely for the SX2.7.

    • @Ethan.Downey
      @Ethan.Downey  4 роки тому

      If your refering to the tool changer than that is still a yes as the current logic is written to count and home using some type of sensor/ switching signal.

    Nice incorporation of the tool changer and the Masso controller. Where did you get the 2 stage air cylinder for the power draw bar? I'm always leaning toward a cnc controller that isn't pc based, but haven't made the leap.

    • @Ethan.Downey
      @Ethan.Downey  4 роки тому

      You wont regret making the leap! Masso is a great controller.
      The 2 stage air cylinder was purchased from China. If your interested i can dig up the supplier?
