Software notes CNC-ready version: the machine ships with factory-installed stepper motor mounts on the X and Z axes, but stepper motors and CNC controller are sold separately. The control software depends on the paired system and is not supplied as standard. The lathe is entirely manual and is supplied without any drive components: motor, pulleys and power feed are not included and must be sourced separately. No software interface or CNC control is provided.
