Re: Upgrade from 3.16 to 5.08

It's a Bridgeport Interact. I retrofitted it with the Centroid All-in-One board. It does not have a custom plc program. I read the installation guide last night and I think my question has been answered. Now I have to get an up to date report to send off with my order for the software upgrade. Jim B

Re: Which Centroid controller for Bridgeport Interact?

Attached are some of the motor pictures. PM me if you would like the full set and size.

I used an encoder available from Centroid. The motor and encoder cables as well as the junction box adapter are from Centroid as well.

Re: Which Centroid controller for Bridgeport Interact?

Hi SimonP, Sorry I didn't get back sooner, must not have the notifications set right. Tuning on the DC motors with Centroid was not a problem. Unless you are going to use the machine 10 hours a day every day, the DC motors will last. Where I work, we have machines 20 years old running every day with...

Re: Which Centroid controller for Bridgeport Interact?

I have updated a Bridgeport Interact. I kept the original motors and installed new encoders from Centroid. Some machining is required, but it wasn't that hard. I used the AllinOne control with Win 10 and this system is working great. I can send pictures of everything I did if you would like. Also, t...
