STUDY AND DESIGN OF A 2D CNC PLOTTER.

Abstract

The purpose of this research project is to develop a mini CNC machine plotter for 2D drawing applications using Arduino technology. This plotter is designed to move the pen precisely across a flat surface to create complex drawings and designs based on digital input. The project includes the mechanical design, electronic circuitry, and programming aspects needed to build a plotter. The mechanical design focused on creating a stable frame, integrating stepper motors for precise movement, and implementing a pin-lifting mechanism. The electronic circuit involves connecting an Arduino board to a stepper motor, motor driver, and power supply to achieve controlled movement of the plotter. Programming involves writing code to interpret G-code commands and generate motor control signals for stepper motors. also. The purpose of this project is to provide a comprehensive guide to building a mini CNC machine plotter for 2D drawing applications.
