The goal of the project is the realization of a modular firmware that allows to control a CNC machine with different utensils. For instance, a CNC with a drill, with few changes can become a plotter with a pen or cutting machine to cut cardboard or stickers. In order to do that, we want project a CNC router with a mechanism that allows a fast utensil change and a controlling firmware which can use different utensils changing some configuration parameters.

Features

  • It is implemented in C++ doce
  • Easy to compile and load by means of Arduino IDE
  • Doxigen documentation
  • G-Code interpreter that recognizes basic command G0, G1, G2, G3...
  • High modularity due to the object oriented programming
  • The firmware is optimized for Arduino Mega 2560
  • The firmware supports RAMPS 1.4
