Hey Everyone,
This forum is awesome by the way.
I would like to ask a quick question.
I have a Micrologix 1000 plc, 32 I/O and I want to use it to make something similar to a cnc machine in which I would need to move 3 axis (X,Y,Z) with relatively good precision.
Anyone want to give me an idea on what type of motor I should use?
Heres what I sort of figured out.
-DC motors would not be really accurate unless I use sensors which is fine if I I can get it right
-Steppers and Servo are a bit complicated
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
