Traditionally, 3D printer control boards have used simplistic 8-bit microcontrollers to command the stepper drivers and ultimately move the machine where it needs to go. Newer boards have switched ...

Makers, hobbyists and developers looking to build their very own 3D printer may be interested in the MRR ESPA a 32-bit 3D printer control board with wireless connectivity. Based on the popular ESP32 ...

For quite some time now, Marlin has been the firmware of choice for any kind of custom 3D printer, with only Klipper offering some serious competition in the open-source world. [Liam Powell] aims to ...

Embedded systems engineer Pascal Wistinghausen based in Germany has created a new 3D printer controller board in the form of the Sigmoid S7P, which he has made available via the Kickstarter ...

Big Tree Tech, a respected Chinese make of 3d printer parts, has adopted Raspberry Pi’s RP2040 microcontroller to miniaturise a 3D printer controller board. Called ‘SKR Pico V1.0’, the controller has ...

Medium-sized cnc machines, which I am defining as those using NEMA 23 and 24 motors, need about 5A per stepper, usually mandating separate driver modules alongside a control board. However, 3d printer ...

Voltera’s co-founders couldn’t believe their eyes when they started a 30-day crowdfunding campaign in February 2015. Within 30 minutes they had reached their US$70,000 kickstarter goal; and ended the ...
