You might expect
me to talk about using Centroid CNC controls to upgrade your
existing machine at less than half the cost of what you will spend
for a new replacement machine tool. While this is very true, I
have news that can save you even more. Centroid CNC control
products have always been assembled as a complete system. Each M400
and T400 control includes new servo motors, servo driver set, PLC,
computer console with display and push button panel, contactors
fuses and overloads. A complete running control ready to
install
on your CNC machine.
There are many
advantaged to this complete system philosophy especially in
the areas of time, performance and reliability. Let's look at
the efforts Centroid has made to reduce the cost of
professional CNC control upgrades.

"S" System
pricing
Prices effective August 1,
2009 to November 1, 2009 Machines in Motion
Inc. will maintain these prices for
now. | I have represented Centroid
Corp. for over 12 years now and I have never seen "sale" pricing
from this company. As shown above, These discounted prices are
temporary and will not be extended. If you have ever wanted Centroid
professional quality on your CNC machine tool NOW'S the time to make
that decision.
Save even more
Discounted pricing is just the beginning. Centroid has put
together several new control system packages allowing for the
continued use of your existing servo motors. For those of you with
large format machinery we can also offer you continued use of your
servo drivers as well. This is all due to Centroid's pioneering in
newly designed circuit boards and "developed in-house" Linux based
control software.
Today's Centroid control product
can include
- Scale feedback for
higher machine precision. Basing the controlled CNC motion around
your machine's actual axis position instead of the servo motor's
rotation.
- Higher speeds are now
available due to faster chip sets engineered into our latest DSP
control boards.
- Special smoothing
parameters have been developed to improve motion
control of light weight and linear bearing type machinery.
- Simplified PLC programming
language will reduce the cost of custom programming.
- New internal information
sharing gives Centroid CNC controls nearly limitless
programming capability. If someone told you "it can't be done"
then check with Machines in Motion Inc.
- Networking to a remote
location is now possible. Both Ethernet and USB memory devices are
accepted for fast & simple file transfer.
- Lower cost (third party) suppliers of high performance
AC brushless servo motors are
now supported.
There are literally Too
Many new developments to list everything here. I can offer you the
following example of how our new control systems have slashed your
