Description:
CNC controllers are computer numerically controlled (CNC) devices that control machines and processes. They provide capabilities ranging from simple point-to-point linear control to highly complex algorithms with multiple axes of control.
CNC controllers are used to retrofitting many types of machine shop equipment.
The CNC motion controller is a link between personal computers and drivers for stepper or servo motors. It uses a USB port that is available on all modern computers and laptops. Some models also use the Ethernet port. This is a complete (software/hardware) solution and it does NOT require any additional software (Mach3 is NOT needed).
The USB CNC controller is compatible with most step/dir drivers (stepper and servo).
It has the same pin-out as popular PICStep, PMinMO, and Linistepper drivers.
It can be used as a direct replacement for many parallel port break-out boards. Finished and ready to use controllers are available in our shop.
There is also a DIY version if you want to build one yourself.
Our controllers are used by hobbyists and professionals all over the world.
You can also use software just to visualize G-code or simulate toolpath.
