Joined for help with an industrial system

Post by derekmccoy »

Hi, I've joined here to see if anyone can help with a large industrial plasma table my father-in-law acquired. It seems to be a custom built table using industrial parts (Sanyo Denki PY2 amplifier and P5 servos). I have managed to find some stuff online about the motors and drivers but the information is scarce. I will post on the main board the details but just thought I'd introduce myself first in case anyone can point me in a direction where I could find the info I need. Either here or elsewhere. Many Thanks

Is this table working? If so what is controlling it? What plasma cutter?
If you want to retrofit it, you might have more luck posting on the LInuxcnc forum including photos of the motors and servo controllers as there a lots of guys familiar with retrofitting servo controlled systems as there is a greater range of hardware available.
