In this video, I show how I went about creating a lathe CNC conversion with a difference.
Instead of modifying the lathe, I built a two-axis CNC table that sits on top of the lathe bed. This technique avoids the usual removal of the z-axis lead screw and the subsequent loss of thread cutting capability. It also avoids the need to machine the underside of the cross slide to accommodate the ball screw and nut.
The CNC controller used is LinuxCNC.
