Looking for Mach3 Board? MACH3 Interface Board CNC 5 Axis with Optocoupler for Stepper Motor Driver and USB cable (Length-1.5m) is available at Zbotic with fast shipping across India.
MACH3 Interface Board CNC 5 Axis with Optocoupler for Stepper Motor Driver and USB cable
The MACH3 Interface Board CNC 5 Axis with Optocoupler for Stepper Motor Driver is the most recent upgrade to the 5 axis breakout board. It is specifically designed for CNC single axis 2-phase stepper driver controllers, including series such as TB6560, M542, M542H, MA860H, 2M542, 2M982, DM542(A), and DM860(A). This board allows direct control of any 1-5 single axis stepper driver controllers from a PC using software like MACH3, EMC2, or KCAM4.
The board features a relay output port to control the spindle switch, designated as output port P17.
Additionally, it provides an optocoupler isolated 0-10V analog voltage output, which, when used with the appropriate analog interface converter, can manage the spindle speed. The output port P1 opens all 17 ports, enabling control of a 5-axis stepper motor through the optocoupler drive. The P1 port also serves as a PWM output, which can be managed by an optocoupler input spindle governor. This setup is compatible with both common cathode and common anode input levels at 5V drive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this board compatible with TB6560 and DM542 stepper drivers?
Yes. The breakout board is specifically designed to interface with popular 2-phase stepper drivers like TB6560, M542, DM542(A), DM860(A) and similar series for up to five axes.
Do I need an external power supply for this interface board?
Yes. While the USB cable powers the logic circuitry, you must provide a separate 12–24 V DC supply for the optocoupler inputs, relay coil and peripheral devices.
How do I set up limit switches and emergency stop inputs?
Connect each switch to one of the five digital input terminals (IN1–IN5) and wire the common terminal to the 0 V rail. Configure the input pins in your CNC software to assign them as limit, E-stop or probe functions.
The MACH3 Interface Board CNC 5 Axis with Optocoupler for Stepper Motor Driver and USB cable (Length-1.5m) is a versatile stepper motor drivers used across a wide range of applications including CNC machines, 3D printers, robotics, camera sliders, and pick-and-place machines.
Common use cases:
