Characeristics
- Maximum supported size of PCBs: 150mm x 80mm
- DC power supply: 12V 10A
Software used
- Flatcam 8.97 Beta
- bCNC
Software installation
The instructions below were tested on Debian 10, with contrib, non-free and backports repositories enabled.
First, install the following required packages using the following command
sudo apt update
sudo apt instal git python-pip python3-pip
Flatcam
Clone the flatcam git repository
git clone https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam.git
Enter the flatcam dir and switch to the beta branch
cd flatcam
git fetch && git checkout Beta
(At time of writing, we were using commit 2907a73)
Install the needed dependencies
chmod +x setup_ubuntu.sh
sudo ./setup_ubuntu.sh
Might be enough, but I aint installing my VM to make sure :-). So install the packages below as well:
sudo apt install python3-opengl python3-tk python3-fonttools libspatialindex-dev
pip3 install rasterio simplejson ezdxf svg.path freetype-py ortools vispy shapely
You are now able to start flatcam like so:
python3 FlatCAM.py
bCNC
Run the following commands:
sudo apt install python-tk
pip2 install --upgrade bCNC
From now on, you can launch bCNC by running:
python2 -m bCNC
