Panucatt Re-ARM Controller for RAMPS

Benefits of the Re-ARM over an Arduino MEGA

The Re-Arm micro controller board is more powerful and built with a faster processor, enabling faster feed rates for you 3D printer. The board has an SD card slot for firmware and configuration files, but also supports a second SD card connected via an LCD screen for project file loading. Having a separate configuration file outside of the firmware makes settings changes much easier than other boards which require new firmware for any and all settings changes. The configuration is a text file, making changes from a computer easy and fast.

Key Features

• More powerful, faster processor enabling faster feed rates for you 3D printer.
• Runs Smoothieware.
• Easy to manage configuration using a text file on SD card. Other controller boards require freshly uploaded firmware with every settings change
• Since SD cards appear as a drive in windows, it's easy to drag and drop new firmware or edit the config file right on your computer without the need for specialized software.
• Capable of running smaller micro-step stepper drivers such as the 1/128 micro-stepping SD6128 driver, available as an addon item.
• Headers for an Ethernet RJ45 add-on Module, which is not included with this board.
• Utilize a graphic LCD screen on your Delta 3D printer without issue.
• Supports 2 SD cards - one for settings and firmware, installed directly onto this board as well as another for file loading, which connects on the LCD screen.
• 5V tolerant pins, except for analog inputs which are 3.3V
• Filtered endstop inputs.
• Able to run CNCs, Laser cutters and 3D printers.
