I started my cnc experience with a chinese 3040 benchtop cnc. The controller was a T-D 3 axis controller and I use Mach3 software because I am familiar with it. Can I use this software and controller to control my MPCNC? I must be to dang stupid to wire this because after multiple tries and the rails either working against each other or sounding like they were grinding, I got frustrated and took the thing apart. My 3040 only had 3 NEMA 23 motors and the controller still makes it work perfectly. Any opinions or ideas before I take a sledge hammer to this project? Thanks, David
You definitely can use it. But there aren’t many of us here that do, so we won’t be a ton of help.
Post some pictures of the build and how you have it wired.
What kind of drivers and steppers are you using for the MPCNC?
I will put it back together, snaps some pics and maybe a video of what it is and isn’t doing and post them. May be tomorrow. Thanks for your reply.
