Re: Centroid and Waterjet Cutting – Dual Head Support

Hello and welcome to the forums.
Unfortunately, Centroid currently doesn't directly support waterjets.
However, I believe it could be done with custom PLC and VCP work.
With a Centroid controller and full access to the PLC running the machine, you can do just about anything.
I would love to see us ...

Re: Tree Journeyman 250 CNC

If they had a custom PLC before I have to assume they need to be using that custom PLC now, which they are according to the original report.

Posting new reports as you go along and change things can help ...

Re: Tree Journeyman 250 CNC

Looking in the report one can find the mpu.plc file.
This indicates which PLC file has been compiled and is being used.
In this case they have a custom PLC for a spindle lock and some kind of spindle door.

From what I can tell, the Aux 3 key is used to lock/unlock the ...

If you'd like to do the swapout send us an email ...
