LDR Operating Software

[Davemg44]

We have an LDR tubing cutter. The machine was operating until the computer grenaded and we lost the operating software. Does anyone know where we can find software that will get our machine up and running again???

Have you tried contacting Dan at LDR?

[Davemg44]

Yes we have. He sold the business a couple of years ago and only left an email address which he hasn't replied to. We tried to contact the new owners to see if they could help and no reply to emails and the phone just rings. We assume they are out of business. We have since moved to installing Mach4 and are currently figuring out how to make our machine run. I appreciate your reply.

That is very unfortunate, I had no idea that they had sold or were out of business. At least you have a quality platform to get Mach4 going on. Best of luck and would like hear how this worked out for you once your done. Best of luck.

I will update this thread once we have it up and running, hopefully by the end of the year.

If it helps, CandCNC is what they used for control box, the site is https://www.candcnc.com. I bought a LDR table through an auction and they helped me get it running again.

Not exactly. If its older its MACH3 and the hardware and plug-ins are for MACH3 . Won't work with MACH4.
If its newer is CommandCNC for Linux. In either case we can help. Limited help on a MACH3 system if it has to be loaded from scratch.

There are upgrade options available OR a placement using the new Home Shop controller

They sold out and not to long ago the entire building (historic old Nerw England barn burned to the ground and the new owner lost everything . Closed up shop.
