HXCNC-4A engraving machine control board is an integrated control system specially designed for small desktop engraving machine/3D printer/laser engraving machine/mechanical arm. It consists of a high-performance core board with FPGA-ARM architecture and a backplane with rich peripherals including five high-voltage drives. It supports five-axis linkage and arbitrary curve interpolation, as well as the Liberoll motion system with G+ multi-channel programming (multi-threaded).
The following hardware resources are onboard:
- 5 stepper motor drivers, each with a maximum current of 2.5A, supports 42 and 57 series stepper motors.
- Onboard voltage regulator output, 5.3V-12.5V, adjusted by program, can drive external servos or other modules.
- 5V and 3.3V fixed power output.
- Spindle PWM driver 12A MAX.
- Hot bed PWM driver 12A MAX.
- Digital servo connection port (universal serial port) X1
- 4 Output channels to the external drivers
- Voice broadcast, directly connected to a 1.5W speaker.
- Bluetooth interface.
- Parallel LCD interface
- Travel switch input interface X5
- General ADC input X2 and GPIO X2
- Temperature sensor input X3
- Universal driver output (1A MAX) X4
- Remote control interface (universal serial port) X1
- SD card socket
- U Disk socket (USB OTG)
- USB interface
- 3 user buttons
- ARM CortexM4, Spartan3 FPGA, SRAM, online USB firmware update.
Features of HXCNC-4A:
- It can be configured as a five-axis engraving machine XYZAB controller, or a 3D printer XYZE0E1 or a robotic arm controller, or used for a laser engraving machine, etc.
- Rich on-board hardware resources
- Arbitrary space curve linkage and IO operations, with precise synchronization mechanism and predictive interpolation capabilities.
- Powerful programming ability, support G+ system and MCC integrated development environment.
- Super fast (>500KHz when four axis linkage, >5MHz when single move).
