New kid on the block: Mini Gerbil

#1 · January 15, 2019, 6:55 pm

Hi all,

just letting you know that there is a new product to replace the R4 Gerbil controller: Mini Gerbil!

It's super fast and accurate and based on 32 bits rather than 8 bits: see the specifications here https://awesometech1.wpengine.com/mini-gerbil-specifications/

All features from the R4 are still supported!

Mini Gerbil

LaserWeb4 engraving with Mini Gerbil at 6000mm/sec. My X axis can easily go up to 12000 but Y axis is slipping and screeching. Maybe time for a fix of that rubber belt...
