| Software notes | The system includes an Ubuntu Linux computer with LinuxCNC preinstalled for 4-axis control, with the driver board and power supply already fitted. The tailstock spindle remains manually controlled. Utilities to convert CAD files or TrueType fonts into G-code are included; only a monitor must be supplied. | The machine ships with a Mach 3 license, the most widely used CNC control software in the maker and prototyping segment. The Microproto Systems DSLS controller handles closed-loop operation, and the Digital Index Signal Processor (DISP) enables single-point threading. No cloud connectivity or software subscription is required. |
