The Controller

CNC Controller - TNC-M24

Using an Arduino Uno R3 as a controller for CNC machines offers several benefits. First, it provides an affordable and accessible option for hobbyists and small businesses to build their own CNC machines.

The Arduino Uno R3 is widely available and relatively inexpensive, making it an attractive option for those on a budget. Second, the Arduino Uno R3 is easy to use and program, even for those without extensive programming experience.

Its open-source nature means that there are many resources available online, including tutorials and code libraries, to help users get started. Finally, the Arduino Uno R3 offers flexibility and customization options, allowing users to tailor their CNC machines to their specific needs and preferences.

We offer two additional CNC controller options (Upgrades) that can be configured with our CNC machines to enhance their functionality.

The first option is the Parallel Port Controller, which is made in India and features the LinuxCNC operating system. 

This controller & PC is embedded in the electronics box of the CNC and is an optional upgrade for a touchscreen interface at an additional cost. 

Alternatively we can provide a non-touchscreen option as well.

ethernet controller and pc

The second option is the Ethernet Controller, manufactured in Hungary. This controller does not include a PC and is designed to work with any Windows computer (not included). 

It provides seamless connectivity and compatibility with a wide range of Windows systems. You can use their own UCCNC Control software or Mach 3/4.

It can be configured with a Touch / Non-Touch PC & monitor combination

Product Warranty

Regarding warranty offerings, we provide comprehensive coverage to ensure your peace of mind. With our OSL Coverage

One Year

Full Warranty, you can enjoy a worry-free first year of ownership, knowing that any manufacturing defects or issues will be promptly addressed. 

Ten Years

Extended Warranty (optional), allowing you to extend the coverage up to a total of 10 years to be purchased in 1 or 3 year packages, tailored to your needs.

Lifetime

 Lifetime Warranty for the superstructure. This ensures the longevity of your investment and provides enduring protection and assurance. Read more about why we offer this warranty below..

composite superstructure - lifetime warranty

Our products are made from Carbon Fibre & Fibre Glass, Composite Sandwich Structure – Ranging from 5 MM to 25 MM as needed. It provides the following benefits as compared to standard Steel or Aluminium framed CNC’s

  • Metal Fatigue – Doesnt suffer form sagging, hoggingor metal fatigue over time.
  • Vibration Dampening Properties – Composites have a high loss co-efficient and the structure is able to reduce / absorb vibrations leading to reduced chatter when milling / cutting materials
  • Light & Strong – Composites are less dense than steel and are yet comparable to them in Strength & Stiffness

We prepared and got a 6 MM thick piece of composite tested by Underwriters Laboratory. You can access their reports by clicking on theirl logog below.
