Automated excerpt

This project contains an open source low-cost, easy-to-build motorized XYZ Micro-Manipulator motion control platform achieving submicron precision. The device can be controlled via simple G-Code commands over a USB serial interface and is thus easily integrated into other projects. M3 T0 S0. 7 // set pwm output of tool 0 to 70% G4 S0. 001 // dwell command (or any other motion command) - necessary to apply the tools output Calibration: Calibration has now some addition error checks to improve error reporting of potential problems like encoder alignment.
