Multiple spindle control

Post by CaryBrace » Sun Apr 26, 2026 8:32 am

Hi, I’m in the middle of designing a CNC that will at least 3 spindle motors. Can the controller run at least 3 spindles separately? Can it be set up to turn on, shut off and control running speed for each spindle motor?

If your question is whether the Buildbotics Contoller can control multiple spindles simultaneously and have each spindle doing something different, the answer is no.

If you want to describe your application in a bit more detail, I may be able to come up with some helpful ideas.
