User Reviews

  • I bought an older Topwell 3VK that was powered by Analam on EBay. I did get it to run, (would not boot when I got it), but it was a cranky and old controller. So I kept the servo drivers, (SD-1525) on out and using the Mesa 7i77 and 7i92 got it up and running on LinuxCNC! It became a delightful machine! Thanks for making it possible.
  • Excellent CNC control software for any machine from a simple hobby-ist's router to large industrial machinery. It does have a steep learning curve for anyone not familiar with the operation of CNC controls or configuring them. Actual installation of the software is very simple with the live ISO.
  • Very good Software.

  • Easy install and setup! works great.
  • right out of the box, (actually just a download) I was able to connect to a PPMC controller and give commands.
