Hi all, I bought the Acorn board but didn't know which machine I was going to use it for, I decided to go with my cnc plasma table, it's not really an upgrade but making a new one since that makes me money but I can use it on my old machine until the new one is finished. Anyway Centroid makes a really high quality THC "Torch Height control" Anyone know if that's the only one that will work with the board?
I have the Proma THC which I don't like much but it will get the job done and I would rather spend the money on other parts of the build which I will need every penny for. I can get it going in a few hours with the centroid acorn and a few days to learn the new software but I need confirmation that I can use my old THC before getting rid of Mach 3 and some electronics.

Re: Acorn board THC controller.
hello!
the Centroid Plasma CNC controller is not compatible with any other brand THC unit. They don't use the same tech as the Centroid THC.
