***SPAM*** Rasberry Pi2 CNC?
There have been a few attempts at LinuxCNC on the original Pi, and with the extra power of the Pi2 there should be even better latency. There are some nice breakout boards to ues witn the Pi

While looking on Amazon I see where the CPU is a quad core 900 mHz and there is 1Gb of ram.? Has any one looked at using one of these in a CNC application for mach3 ? I see that win10 is coming out with and OS for it. Dan Mauch |

开云体育This is great news as I have two of
these R.P. 2 units.? I heard also that M.S. will Pre-release an
M.S. 10 release for people to tryout for free.? But nobody has
confirmed
this is actually happening.? Beta?? Anyway, I am keeping an eye on this talk with Rasberry Pi2. Vince On 6/8/2015 11:22 AM, lester@... [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] wrote: ? |

The BeagleBone has two additional CPUs specifically designed for real time speedup, and step generators have been implemented in them.? I sell a "cape" for the BeagleBone called the CRAMPS, that can mount up to 6 Pololu-style stepper driver modules plus other functions mostly aimed at 3D printers.? it makes a VERY small CNC control platform. I'll have one at the CNC Workshop in Detroit next week (although that won't do you much good in the UK). Jon |

The linux distributions already configured for Pi2 just work without needing to jump through any hoops. loks like a more practical starting point, and I'm sure Pi2 is already on someone's bench. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - L.S.Caine Electronic Services - EnquirySolve - Model Engineers Digital Workshop - Rainbow Digital Media - |
Windows 10 for the Pi is a DOS interface only with no windows available.
