Description:
Numerical control (also computer numerical control, and commonly called CNC) is the automated control of machining tools (such as drills, boring tools, lathes) and 3D printers by means of a computer. A CNC machine processes a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, or composite) to meet specifications by following a coded programmed instruction and without a manual operator.
A CNC machine is a motorized maneuverable tool and often a motorized maneuverable platform, which are both controlled by a computer, according to specific input instructions. Instructions are delivered to a CNC machine in the form of a sequential program of machine control instructions such as G-code and then executed. The program can be written by a person or, far more often, generated by graphical computer-aided design (CAD) software. In the case of 3D printers, the part to be printed is "sliced", before the instructions (or the program) is generated. 3D printers also use G-Code.
This is an upgraded nMotion Mach3 4 Axis USB CNC Motion Card Interface Adapter for Engraving Machine Servo / Step Motors which is one of the most popular CNC Controllers for both DIY and Industrial machines. Mach3 works on most Windows PC's to control the motion of motors (stepper & servo) by processing G-Code. Mach3 is a feature-rich program that is also easy to use.
Features:
1- This is for 4 axis
2- Fully supporting all Mach3 versions, including the Mach3 R3.043.066 version.
3- Supporting Windows series, including Windows2000/XP/Vista/Win7/Win8/Win10.
4- No need to install any USB drivers, it can be used after plugging in the computer.
5- USB bus is the use of magnetic coupling isolation, isolation of real value, different from the general control card optocoupler input and output, do high reliability, absolute guarantee the safety of the computer USB. At the same time to ensure that the strong anti-interference ability of EMC.
6- The single chip, the system stability is more streamlined, multi-chip processing generally incomparable
7- Dual-core ultra-high-speed CPU (the maximum single-core frequency 204MHz), operation processing ability has great redundancy, and ensure the realization of a four-axis linkage under 500KHz frequency of the pulse output, 6 axis pulse output frequencies up to 300kHz, connected to the servo/step
8- Motion control buffer size can be set and ensure the fast interpolation cycle can stable operation, computer running overload can also smooth operation and interpolation cycle adjustable, can adapt to a variety of different needs.
9- Has 16 input port, input interface more simple, the port of wet and dry contact can be, wiring is simple, dry contact method for as long as the external connection to a physical switch to the wire can be, all 16 input port are indication signal, for low power usually indicating lamp is bright, debugging simple and clear.
10- With 8 output ports, a single output drive capability of 500mA, can be directly driven by DC relay.
11- The PWM speed output port can be set, the frequency of PWM, pulse width 0~1000 continuously adjustable.
12- With the function of the speed, the actual speed of the spindle in the Mach3 interface, real-time display, accurate and stable measurement.
13- With 256 bytes of NVRAM space, it can save the coordinates of the 6 axes, the next power without the need to find the mechanical origin.
14- The circuit board is made by the engineer, the design level is clear at a glance.
