Centroid “Hickory” closed loop CNC Controller.
A reliable, high-performance, industrial-quality CNC control. Hickory utilizes an integrated Motion Control CPU and communicates with both the CNCPC and the Servo Drives via a fast and reliable Ethernet connection. The Hickory is an 8 axis CNC control board. Perfect for many types of machine tools such as CNC milling machines of all types, Turning Centers, and a wide variety of CNC Routers and other specialty applications. Typically used on CNC machine tools where a high-performance CNC control is needed. Hickory utilizes AC brushless servos with Ethernet communication protocol, compatible drives with Hickory are: Yaskawa, Glentek and Estun. More makes and models will be added to the compatibility list as we test them. Currently, there is no guarantee from Centroid when using Hickory with any other drive other than: Yaskawa Sigma 7 SGD7S, Glentek Gamma 9GE, and Estun Summa ED3S. We are testing Inovance and Leadshine at the moment and hope to add them soon as well.
