Makelangelo-firmware
Open-source CNC firmware for diverse robotic systems including polargraphs, robot arms, and delta robots.
What is Makelangelo-firmware?
Makelangelo-firmware is an open-source CNC firmware designed to control a wide variety of robotic systems, including polargraphs, SCARA arms, delta robots, and Stewart platforms. It solves the need for flexible motion control in non-traditional CNC applications where standard firmware like GRBL or Marlin may not be suitable. The project originated as the brain for the Makelangelo art robot but has expanded to support diverse kinematic models.
Makers, roboticists, and hardware developers building custom CNC machines, art robots, or experimental kinematic systems beyond typical 3D printers or mills.
Developers choose Makelangelo-firmware for its extensive support of unconventional kinematic systems and hardware flexibility, offering a specialized alternative to more rigid CNC firmware solutions.
Overview
CNC firmware for many different control boards and kinematic systems. Originally the brain of the Makelangelo art robot.
