The modules are highly optimized for their functions. You might like this special version of the 6 Pack. Note: If you plan on using external drivers. We already have some standard machines already defined, such as the MPCNC and Lowrider machines. You can also assign 2 motors to any axis (XXYYZ, XYZZ, XXYYZA, etc). The firmware can handle up to six coordinated axes (XYZABC). You only need to fill as many as you plan to use. We also have low cost adapters that allow the use of external drivers that connect directly to the terminal blocks. These support the simple step/dir modules and Trinamic SPI drivers with support for all modes, including stall detection and super quiet mode. We start with standard plug in motor driver sockets. We tried to make the stepper motor support as universal as possible.

Here is one fully populated with modules. We have modules that support PWM with enable and direction, RS485 Modbus for VFDs, 0-10V analog voltage and even BESC (Brushless Electronic Speed Controller) based spindles. This might be controlled with a simple relay. Many people start with a basic spindle, like a palm router.

If your machine changes, you only need to swap out the affected modules. It uses standardized modules that allow you to customize it to exactly fit your machine. Rather than hard wiring a bunch of standard features like most controllers, this has no dedicated features. The 6 Pack Universal CNC Controller is designed to control DIY CNC machines.
