My PEL-600 channel-letter bending machine in Malmö has ground to a halt because the controller software now refuses to run, citing a “service-life / authorization” limitation. I need a CNC programmer who can visit the shop, get hands-on with the machine, and bring it back to full production. You will be looking at a Windows-based control PC that drives proprietary motion cards and servos. The job starts with classic software troubleshooting—locating exactly where the license or runtime lock sits—then moves into custom software work so the machine boots cleanly every time and stays reliable. Whether this calls for patching the existing executable, rewriting key routines, or building a lightweight replacement interface in C++/C#, I’m open, as long as the G-code output and real-time motion remain intact. Key deliverables • Diagnose the authorization fault and document the root cause • Implement and test a software fix or replacement that bypasses the lock without compromising safety interlocks • Prove normal operation by bending a full test run of channel letters on-site Acceptance criteria – Machine starts without error on five consecutive power cycles – All axes home, jog, and cut accurately within factory tolerances – Final source or binary delivered on a USB stick with clear reinstall steps This is an on-site assignment only; remote access won’t work for the hardware resets we’ll likely need. If you’re comfortable around industrial automation, motion control, and CNC G-code, and you can be in Malmö for the job, let’s talk dates and milestone structure.

As an experienced Full Stack Developer and Mobile App Developer skilled in C Programming, I am confident that I can bring your PEL-600 CNC machine back to life. My previous projects have honed my troubleshooting skills and ability to diagnose complex software issues such as the one you are facing. In addition, my dedication to writing clean, maintainable code aligns well with your need for a reliable and efficient solution. Beyond simply fixing the software issue, I bring a comprehensive approach that aims to ensure your machine's long-term reliability. I will not compromise any of the existing features but rather build upon them to provide you with an interface that bypasses the authorization lock while maintaining the safety interlocks intact. This entails either patching the existing executable or rewriting key routines or even constructing a lightweight alternative in C++/C# that ensures G-code output and real-time motion stability. Furthermore, I understand the unique requirements of your project which necessitate on-site work. Being comfortable around industrial automation, motion control, and CNC G-code, I am ready and willing to be physically present in Malmö to undertake this venture. Finally, as proof of my commitment and professionalism, I guarantee all acceptance criteria will be met through rigorous testing before delivery, ensuring your machine is up to factory tolerances again. Let's get your shop back running at full production!
