Mill Encoder

[angry_automaton]

Hello,

so I have A quick question. I have been reading through the forum, what I don't see is any mention of encoders on mill spindles. If you wanted to do any thread milling/rigid tapping, how is everyone doing it without the spindle track of its position?

Thanks

There's an encoder input on the Masso. Check the documentation for which pins. From memory it's on the opposite side to VFD control pins
