CNC Plotter

CNC Plotter - it was my first remarkable step in Robotics. Before working on this project i worked just only basic electronics, IC, Transistor etc.

On July 2016 , arduino programming becoming familiar to me . All on a sudden i started to make this mini CNC plotter. This is completely a DIY (do it yourself) project. Stepper motor and its baseplates collected from the old DVD writer of PC. Two DVD writers steppers works as X and Y axis and the servo works as Z axis. For stepper controlling purpose i used two L293D IC . Servo was controlled by the pulse from arduino.

Procedure to make plot

1. At first we have to choose a picture which we want to make plot by CNC.

2. Then we have to make this picture B&W trace.

3. Then we make gcode file for that image.

4. Using Processing IDE and through the arduino code we can make plotting.
