The Sherline CNC Linear Controller Z-Axis for 2000 Mill is a sophisticated device designed to enhance the functionality of a stepper motor by providing precise control over its operations. This controller is equipped with a programmable keypad, allowing users to input commands directly without the need for a computer or master CNC controller. It supports the connection of multiple units through an 8-pin mini-DIN cable, enabling them to operate in a coordinated sequence. This feature facilitates complex movements and operations, making it suitable for tasks that require precision and coordination.

The controller is capable of storing two separate programs, each comprising up to 40 operations. Users can manage various parameters such as distance, direction, speed, and program flow, including pauses and transitions between operations. Additionally, the controller can be integrated with Sherline’s rotary controller, allowing for combined rotary and linear movements. This integration is particularly beneficial for intricate tasks like gear cutting, which can be executed without extensive knowledge of CNC programming.

One of the key advantages of using this linear controller is the ability to maintain a constant feed rate, which results in a smoother and more consistent finish on the workpiece. It also minimizes the risk of errors associated with manual operations, such as miscounting handwheel revolutions. The controller eliminates the need for physical effort during long cuts or when returning the saddle to its starting position, enhancing efficiency and reducing operator fatigue. Programming the device is straightforward, and once set, programs can be executed repeatedly with high precision at the press of a button.

Note: Ensure proper installation and use according to the provided instructions to avoid operational hazards.
