Take Control

Start creating with a General Technics CNC system. Designed for harsh industrial settings, these systems are ideal for controlling the machine tools in your workshop. Each is optimized for use with Mach3™ CNC software, and comes preinstalled with a trial version from ArtSoft®*. This fully-featured professional software enables 6-axis CNC machining with spindle speed control, Gcode generation, and a customizable interface with touch-screen support. For more information about Mach3™, or to purchase the full license, please visit ArtSoft® at machsupport.com.

Workshop Ready

Two high-speed parallel ports let you connect directly to driver boards and isolated I/O boards to control relays and to read home and limit switches. A washable air filter guards the inlet fans to protect against dust ingress. At just over 16" deep, its rugged steel case is short enough to place on or under your workbench, and includes brackets for rack mounting. The full ATX boards featured in the configurations below provide plenty of headroom to grow with your workshop. Additional card slots (up to 7 total) and drive bays (3 total) let you expand with future add-ons.
