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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Elias Bakken has developed a new 3D printer control board called the Replicape, which he has designed to provide both quiet and smart features and functionality to help you build that perfect 3D ...

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 ...
