Mach 3 and EMC Breakout Board

This board has been specifically designed to allow Plug & Play compatability for our TEKDrives and Mach3 Software (DB25 version).  The board is also compatible with EMC.

Features include:

  • Optional Utilisation of the Mach3 Charge Pump.
  • Drive enable/disable circuitry.
  • Automatic E/Stop and drive disable on any drive fault condition.
  • Fully buffered I/O from PC.
  • Each drive connects via a 10 way ribbon cable plug/socket. No messy screw terminals!
  • Runs from a single 12V supply
  • Compatible with our standard Relay and Home Input boards to form a control stack.

Complete Control Stack Built from any of our Breakout Boards 

Our CNC Interface Control Stacks take the frustration and time out of fiddly wiring. This neat and compact system allows easy plug-in connection for external devices and is configured so it can be mounted within an enclosure allowing you to expose all of the plug sockets for safe external connection. The Stack System also interfaces directly with the TEKdrives to give you neat and tidy internal wiring. Supplied with your control stack, is a DXF drawing of the cut your enclosure for the external connection.

Features include:

  • DeskCNC Generation 2 or Mach3 Interface
  • 4 Relay Outputs
  • 4 Homing Switch Inputs
  • 1 E/Stop Input
  • Digitising Probe Input (DeskCNC)
  • PWM Output
  • Tool Change Relay (Desk CNC)
  • LED Relay Indicator Board
  • Relay Off Switch for Dry Run
  • Interfaces directly with our TEKdrives
  • Runs smoothly on any system that can comfortably run Windows (95, 98, Me, XP, NT, 2000) for Desk CNC or Windows (2000 & XP for Mach3).
  • Fast Block Processing when machine is running (over 150 Blocks/Sec).
  • True Linear Acceleration Ramp (programmable) throughout the 60 - 40,000 SPS range.
