Small Son and myself sat down last night and wote a front screen for Mach that lets a newbie set up origin, tool hight offsets and zero all axis with the minimum of buttons on the display and each button doing what we wanted it to do, not what anyone else wanted. Runs up to 6 axis, supports many 3th party add ons like jog wheels etc. Mach3, ongoing development, very customisable, brilliant support. Product dead but was good in it's day, still quite a lot out there, mainly in industry, was about $1200ĭeskCNC, much like flashcut with it's own card, been no development for ages and very limited on features, cost around $300 Cost about $1200Īhha, Old DOS program that requires a plug in bord inside the computer. Was popular at one time with the router guys as it had becent look ahead to stop it buring the wood. Cost free.įlashcut, Windows based but uses a specialised controller box that it talks to. TurboCNC, old DOS program that works but very very dated, no development liable in the future. At the present time there are only a few affordable controllers out there.Įmc is a linux based open source controller, works well but requires a lot of technical knowledge on Linux to get working correctly, one for the techies.
