This 5-axis CNC breakout board is designed to interface with stepper motor drivers, enabling control of CNC machines via a parallel port. It offers full compatibility with Mach3 and other parallel port control software, ensuring robust and reliable operation.
- Full Software Support: Compatible with Mach3 and other parallel port control computer software.
- Dual Power Supply: Features USB power supply and external 12-24V power supply with phase separation for enhanced computer security and anti-reverse function.
- Optocoupler Isolation: All input signals (e.g., emergency stop, limit switches) are optically isolated to protect the computer.
- Relay Output: One relay output port (P17) for controlling the main switch or other peripherals.
- Analog Output: One optocoupler-isolated 0-10V analog voltage output (P1) for controlling VFDs and spindle speed.
- 5-Axis Control: All 17 ports are open, allowing connection to optical drive drivers for controlling up to 5 stepper motors.
- PWM Output: P1 can also function as a PWM output for spindle speed regulators with optocoupler input.
- Driver Compatibility: Supports common cathode or common anode connections, with 5V input level for drivers.
- Clear Labeling: All port names are clearly printed on the board for easy setup.
Ideal for DIY CNC projects, upgrades, and industrial automation applications requiring precise multi-axis control.
