Grbl - An embedded rs274/ngc (g-code) interpreter, cartesian bot controller, readout and exerciser for the AVR series of microcontrollers.
|
|
Inspired by the Arduino GCode Interpreter by Mike Ellery
|
|
|
|
Status:
|
|
* Linear interpolation machine control complete (No arcs yet)
|
|
* GCode interpreter complete
|
|
* Basic serial protocol complete
|
|
* As of yet completely untested in a real environemnt. Still waiting for my micRo kit from Lumenlab.com
|
|
|
|
Goals:
|
|
* Runs on the atmega168
|
|
* Runs on the Arduino boards with at least an atmega168
|
|
* Suitable for both milling and deposition fabrication
|
|
* Support GCode from common free and cheap CAM-packages right out of the box
|
|
* Optional support for a alphanumeric LCD readout, a joystick and a few buttons for program control
|
|
* Optional support for automated cutter length calibration when milling
|
|
* Support "headless" fabrication by buffering all code to SD-card or similar
|
|
|
|
Limitations:
|
|
* No support for Arduino software (but will run fine on an Arduino board if you program it with an ISP)
|
|
* Limited GCode-support. Focus on the kind of GCode produced by automated CAM tools. Leave human GCoders frustrated.
