Automate any project with dpCREATOR Motion and FluidNC

Wire a motor, sensor or output, test it, then add the next: Motion writes the controller config for you and helps when something doesn't work. When it all moves, teach the positions and run the sequence from the controller's own memory, or start it from the pendant. A robot arm, a conveyor, a pick-and-place gantry or a machine nobody has built yet: Motion puts every axis, input, relay and output of your controller to work, with no G-code or config files to learn.

Already yours if you have

• a dpCREATOR R3 controller
• the R3 + SmartTabUI combo
• One licence covers two boards on your account

Try the simulatorHow it works

• Build it part by part
  Add a motor, sensor or output, test it, then the next. Motion writes the config.
• Teach and sequence
  Jog to each stop, save it, add waits, sensors, outputs and repeats.
• Runs on the controller
  The program runs from the controller's memory, with live speed, pause and stop.

dpCREATOR Motion is a browser app for building your own machine and making it work, even if it is your first. Draw the machine in 3D from the motors, sensors and outputs that are really wired, test each one, teach its positions, put them in a sequence and run it on a FluidNC controller. It lives on the controller itself: no app to install, no internet needed.

• Machine builder: linear axes, turntables, arm joints, hobby servos, conveyors, grippers, vacuum cups, sensors, limit switches, lights and valves
• Only offers what the controller's config can drive, and adds the missing lines for you
• A test for every part, and "Not working?" help that ends in a fix
• Teach positions with the jog bar, the keyboard or the pendant's handwheel
• Steps: moves (by speed or time), waits, outputs, wait for or run until a sensor, repeat, if, pause, message, taught paths
• Timeline with the cycle time, simulator, and runs from the controller's SD card with live speed 10–200 %
• Several sequences per machine; the SmartTabUI pendant can start them on its own
