| Software notes | The system includes a PC running Ubuntu Linux with LinuxCNC pre-installed, along with a 4-axis driver board built into the computer chassis. A CD with complete instructions and utilities to convert CAD files and TrueType fonts into G-code is included. The operator must supply an external monitor; keyboard and mouse are provided. LinuxCNC is an open-source CNC control package running real-time on the Linux kernel and is compatible with standard G-code formats. | The L1015 is a fully manual lathe in its base configuration: no CNC control or software interface is included. Speed control depends entirely on the motor chosen by the user, which can be connected to any inverter or speed controller compatible with the included six-step V-belt pulley. |
