what package to fit onto older machine

[nobody]

hello from the uk.

ive run a torchmate for about ten years now,but its starting to have issues,and torchmate no longer do the parts for the early machines.

I made the table,and purchased a package of torchmate,that was just plug and play,including software/height controller/motors etc

ive looked at torchmate acumove 2 ,that I could fit,as I already have their software,but was wondering if any other company,s offer a complete package,that I can just retro fit onto my table.

any info would be great

I know many here run the C&CNC and Flashcut CNC motion/software packages. I have looked at them and both have proven to be very reputable, I just haven't pulled the trigger myself!

TM rescue Kit includes everything . Suoer Z axis with Torch Mount , Ohmic Sensor, DTHC 5 , Cables , motors, all software. SheetCAM and POST processors for plasma, oxy-fuel. Plate Marker , and Router. Torchmate software can be used to draw and then export as DXF but it will only run the (old) toruchmate systems. New AccuMove stuff is totally different.

Flashcut CNC.

I looked at FlashCut. It seems a good solution for sure. BUT what I dislike about FlashCut is they don't post videos or info on their latest revisions of the software.

For instance I just now checked their premium controller info and it says it is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, XP. Is that so and it is not compatible with Windows 10?

Why don't you call Flashcut and ask them? Or message them on their website...

The "Rescue Kit" from CandCNC is a great package as well and is built for your Torchmate machine.
