Anilam close their doors in the USA
Heidenhain has announced that sales and production of all Anilam CNC and DRO systems will be eliminated effective 1/1/12. Anilam was a major player early on in the CNC milling and turning controls industry. Without technical support or new repair parts available, Anilam owners are choosing Centroid CNC Controllers to upgrade their CNC machine tools.
Centroid's "All in one" board has everything needed to control a knee mill, small bed mill or small to medium lathe. Included services are:

Reusing your OEM DC servo motors
- 3 each built in servo drives will power servo motors up to 40"/lbs in size. Servo motors require a mounted ENCODER.
- PLC for monitoring inputs (limit switches) and relay outputs to control machine features such as spindle power (including VFD), autolube, or flood coolant.
- All Centroid CNC control boards include a motion control computer. This improves performance while providing operator safety.
Other CNC control board sets
- For DC servo motors larger than 40"/lbs in size, Powered by Centroid ACDC drives. The OAK board will work well as will the GPIO4d board set.
- For DC servo motors larger than 40"/lbs in size, Powered by an existing third party servo drive. Select the GPIO4d board set.
- For AC brushless servo drives configured to work in velocity mode. Select the GPIO4d board set.
- For AC brushless servo drives configured for position mode including new Yaskawa or Delta servo drives select the OAK board set.
- For machines retaining their OEM Fanuc servo motors Centroid offers a board and software set engineered especially for this purpose. Contact Machines in Motion, Inc. for more information or Download this price sheet for additional details.
