PoKeys 57CNC
The PoKeys 57CNC is a powerful CNC controller with USB and Ethernet interface for precise control of up to 8 axes. It is ideal for industrial and semi-professional applications in machine control, automation and system integration.
The controller supports Mach3 and Mach4 PoKeys plug-ins as well as Modbus TCP and offers direct network access to configuration and diagnostics via an integrated web interface. Communication with the host system can be carried out flexibly via USB (1.1/2.0 HID-compatible) or Ethernet (10/100 Mbit, DHCP or static). The controller also supports the simulation of a USB keyboard and a USB joystick with 6 axes and 32 buttons. These functions enable versatile adaptation to different control scenarios. The combination of network capability, USB functionality and software compatibility makes the PoKeys 57CNC a central interface for complex control systems.
The extensive I/O equipment includes 28 digital inputs and outputs, 5 PWM outputs (up to 25 MHz, two of which are open collector) and 5 analog inputs with low-pass filtering. The system is supplemented by several encoder inputs and a 125 kHz pulse control for up to eight axes.
An isolated 0-10 V output for spindle control protects against interference. Extensions such as relay cards, keyboard modules, HD44780 displays or up to 100 I2C sensors can be connected via the PoExtBus/PoNET interfaces. The controller is supplied with 6-26 V DC and works reliably at temperatures of 0-60 °C. With compact dimensions of 110 × 105 mm, the device can be easily integrated into existing systems.
