SLAm Stepper Driver Users Gallery

Mike Murrays nice CNC mill:

4Axis break out board with 4 SLAms in a neat little box. How neat is that!?

Monster Surf board factory: Take a look at this /monster/ foam cutter that alta noob (who happens to be 14) and his dad will be using to make 18ft SUPS (like over-sized surf boards). It moves at 200ipm (inches per minute) driven by 4 SLAm drivers. It's a three axis machine, but the gantry is moved by a pair of motors, one on each side with gearboxes and a linear rack and pinion vs the standard lead screw and nut found on smaller machines. Total cost for the drive electronics (less the power supply and heatsink) was $170, 4 SLAm's, the 4Axis board and some misc components. (not counting the cost of the two cheap Chinese driver boards he burned up before going with the SLAm's.) It's cutting surf boards now!

Romans CNC Mill: A really nice little CNC mill made by Roman using the SLAm steppers. Features vac attachment, non-contact hall effect limit switches, auto z-axis sensor for tool height, and the SuperPID to control spindle speed, allowing low RPM cutting (doesn't melt plastic or burn wood) with a cheap router.
