Vectric software and machine compatibility

[pbandorf]

I am very interested in purchasing the cnc from Bulkmann 3D. Would anybody know if there is a machine in the listing that would be compatible with the Bulkmann 3d cnc machines with a working post processor. Its the size available with that machine that i am interested in. Love the Vectric software. Learning this first before i purchase the machine in spring.

The machine doesn't matter, it is the control software. It looks like Bulk Man 3D uses either GRBL or Mach 3. Both are supported by Vectric software.

Thanks for the info. I was aware that it uses GRBL, however would anyone know which machine on the list would work with the Bulkmann 3D machine. I know from a friend that has a fox alien machine which uses GRBL, and its on the list of machines. Sorry im new to all this.

Have you tried the Mach 3 (post -Processor) as previously mentioned (by Rcnewcomb)???

My machine wasn't in the list either. You can add a machine manually and specify whichever controller you are using. You are not limited to the machines in the pre-populated list.

Again, all Vectric really cares about is the controller.

Thanks for all the replies.
I have not purchased the machine yet. Just trying to get all information first before i make a purchase decision.
