All Motion control calculated in the core = less dependence on hardware and associated software driver. The core is a full featured ‘brain’ that ensures all input and output devices are coordinated with motion. Mach4 can control CNC machinery, PLC equipment, and robotics. While we are controlling other machine types with our Industrial software, complete hobby solutions with integrated screens and functions have only been completed for these machine types. The standard Mach4 installer will control mills, drills, lathes, and routers. Mach4 has been in use on Industrial equipment running constantly for over a year. While there was only one version of Mach3, Mach4 is offered in different versions. When quality, speed, and the ability to use or learn industrial style controls and methods are what is needed, Mach4 is the correct choice. Mach3 was designed for simple hobby machines and still serves this purpose well. It was written from the ground up to be expandable, flexible, and extremely responsive for use with very large files. Mach4 is completely new software with less than 1% of the programming code in common with Mach3. Mach4 Information: Mach4 is our newest version of CNC motion control software. Vital Systems, PMDX, PoLabs,and CNC4PC, all have great motion control boards with plugins for Mach4 available from the associated links.

Motion control is available using our Parallel Port plugin or our Galil Plugin (licenses required).
