I was searching for information about cam grinding machine conversions and saw website that talked about Converting a Master follower type Cam grinding machine to a machine
that uses data files which contain lobe profile information to control the movement of the machine. The website had information about the conversion which said they used National
Instruments Hardware and LabView Software to control precision servos. The company mentioned in the Website was MAYURAS this company apparently is in India. I've Had no luck contacting them.
We own one of the Master Follower Type Machines and for years I have considered converting it to Computer Numeric Control. We already Generate the precise profiles using
in house software and software purchased from other vendors. The software generates files accurate to .000001" Unfortunately the masters we generate now are only accurate to .0005" this is because our Vertical machining centers are only accurate to .0005"
My company has used National Instruments CVI package to generate a Software package for adjusting and monitoring our Engine management System. We have been using the CVI package for over 10 years to control our Hardware.
