The purple boards slotted into the pairs of SIL headers are Pololu Stepper motor drivers. Going this route makes replacing a burnt out chip as easy as plugging in a new module. The terminal block ...

An interesting Arduino project has been published to the Instructables website showing how an Arduino CNC shield and controller has been used to create an awesome 3 axis Arduino CNC plotter.

which is based on an earlier Arduino shield, has headers for end stop switches, and the software that runs on the cnc’s ATmega has a firmware switch that can be thrown to enable them, and another to ...

Update: The Cronos grbl board mentioned below gets analysed in this further EinW blog My small cnc mill project needs motors (so I am told) that are too powerful for the normal drivers included on ...

Initially, they put an Arduino inside the control box of the CNC and it fit nicely ... interposer from two small protoboards and some pin headers – letting them connect to the STEP and DIR ...

Young maker and Arduino enthusiast Nikodem Bartnik has created a fantastic Arduino CNC machine by converting a Dremel cutting tool and using a selection of 3D printed parts and aluminium profiles.

The Linear Technology Linduino board uses the same Atmel chip as a Arduino Uno, but has isoalted USB and more dc power. So the first and most essential difference is that in addition to the normal ...
