Ethernet CNC controller myCNC-ET1
MyCNC-ET1 «All-in-One» CNC Controller / Motion Controller / Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
Controller can work as independent unit as well as with Host PC connected through Ethernet/USB/RS485.
myCNC-ET1 Controller board based on 100MHz 32bit ARM Cortex-M3 Processor and Altera FPGA logic.
Controller contains:
- Motion controller with true multi-axes line, arc, spiral, spline interpolators;
- Programmamle Logic Conroller;
- An interpreter for G-codes (the RS-274 machine tool programming language);
