Short Description
The machine cannot function alone. The following additional components (accessories) are
necessary for operation:
•
Control
which consists of a PC with the right configuration with struck up control software
(e.g. WinPCNC, Mach3, USBCNC) and a stepper motor control (e.g. Zero3).
•
Tool
with 43mm intake for direct clamping into the holder provided.
•
Accessories
, see Appendix
Control via operating software
To control it requires a CNC-CAM-software.
In a design-/graphic-program (e.g. ConstruCAM 3D, Corel Draw, AutoCad, etc.) the drawings or
texts are created and stored in a suitable format. This data can be (e.g. WIN PC-NC) read by the
control software.
Via control the stepper motors for the axis-movement are controlled. By stepping motors and the
driven ball screws, a conversion of rotary motion into linear is carried out.
