myCNC-ET1 Ethernet CNC controller (connectors view)

 

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);
  • Hardware layer for User interface (9-key membrane keyboard, graphic LCD display with 122x32 pixels resolution, USB host for USB flash drive connections, *M bytes flash memory for "G-code" programs)

Type of interpolation support

  • Linear (all axes simultaneous interpolation).
  • Arc (2D arc interpolation with simultaneous linear interpolation on rest the axes).
  • Spiral (similar with arc interpolation but with linearly varying arc radius)
  • «Bevel corner transition» interpolation (motion according NC-codes with automatic additional non-linear tilt/rotate motion of Bevel rotator to avoid «stops» and «loops» on bevel corners (only for B06 series)
  • Spline interpolation (optional for special request/purpose)
  • NURBS interpolation(optional)
