Frequently Asked Questions:
How can upgrading my controls extend my machine’s life?
Upgrading allows you to keep the sturdy frame and mechanical parts of your machine while updating the electrical components. We replace your CNC machine’s controller, electrical panel, motors, servos, and wiring. You get all the new technology of a new machine without the pricetag.
How long does it take to upgrade?
Typically, most upgrades take just one week to complete, from the time we begin the retrofit to the machine being production-ready. We focus on minimizing downtime so that you can get back to production quickly with your newly upgraded machine.
What is the install process?
Our expert installers decommission your machine, removing all the old components including servos, motors, wiring, electrical panel, and controller. We install all the new components, run test cuts and train your team on how to use the control.
Is my CNC machine compatible?
We retrofit a wide range of CNC machines commonly used in woodworking, including CNC routers, panel saws, mills, and more. Our team has extensive experience upgrading CNC machines from brands like C.R. Onsrud, KOMO, Thermwood and many more!
Will upgrading my CNC router’s controls affect my CAD/CAM software?
No. Our controls are designed to be compatible with your current programs, allowing you to continue using the same CAD/CAM software your team is familiar with.
Can I run my existing G-code programs on the upgraded CNC machine?
Yes, with MachMotion upgrades, you can continue to run your existing G-code program files without needing to rewrite them or adjust the post-processor. We have a g-code adapter that ensures a seamless transition and avoids production delays.
Will my operators need extensive training to use the new controls?
No, your operators will not need extensive training. Most operators can be fully trained in under two hours. Our controls designed to be user-friendly and intuitive, ensuring that your team can quickly learn how to use the upgraded system.
What kind of support is provided after upgrading my CNC machine?
We provide comprehensive, factory-direct support for all our CNC control upgrades. This includes remote technical assistance, troubleshooting, and self-installation guidance to ensure your machine runs smoothly during and after the upgrade.
