My group has a Kr 30-2 w/KRC-1. I've been investigating how to add a rotary table mechanisim, and yeah, I understand that the easiest way to do it is with Kuka motors/drives.
Since this will be powering a rotary table, it doesn't need to be a ginormous motor. I'm finding most motors start at $1500, but I've found what looks like a smaller one for less than $500, and a "PS30/125 servo drive" for less than $100. Pardon such an open-ended question, but how interchangeable are the motors with the drives, and with the cabinets...what specific specs should I be looking for to assure interoperability?
I have generated code w/SprutCAM, so I have the software side covered, just need the hardware. Thanks for any replies!
