Complete CNC control is assembled and factory tested ready to install

We build the CNC so you don't have to. Not just a box of parts or a software disc like the other guys, our CNC controls are ready to install on the machine, each M39 is custom built for your application, all servo motors, power supplies, PLC programming, CNC PC and Software are shipped assembled and ready to run. Get down to business fast and start making profitable parts right away, no other CNC control saves you this much time on installation. Since the M39 is a running CNC control as shipped, the installation is just a matter of bolting up the control, installing the servo motors, and connecting the power.

The M39 can drive either AC or DC servo motors up to 8 axes. The complete wired electrical enclosure can be mounted to the machine or with the CENTROID stand shown. Monitor and keyboard along with the pendant dock allow for easy machine adaptation and customization. Hardware provided makes installation quick and simple. The M39S CNC system is powered by standard 110 VAC or can be ordered in a high power version for 220 volt single or three phase or 440 volt phase input applications.

Conversational Programming is fast and easy

• Program parts right at the control or offline with your desktop PC
• Centroid's Intercon generates the G codes for you.
• Help screens for all the common milling cycles, just fill in the dimensions. Even lines and arcs are canned cycles.
• A graphof the part shows your work as you go. Graph your work at any point, shows both cutter comp and programmed path.
• Automatic pocket cleanout, Intercon auto creates the roughing and finish passes automatically.
• Fill inthe blank programming.

CAD to CNC, DXF file import with Intercon Conversational
Convert DXF files into G code with CENTROID's Intercon conversational programming software. NO CAD/CAM system necessary. Fast and simple, this new feature allows you to create parts directly from a CAD file on the control or on your desktop PC. You can even combine any or all of your CAD file with any conversational events. This is the most flexible way to take advantage of both CAD/CAM like programming with the simplicity of conversational. With a fast learning curve anyone can be producing money making parts from a DXF file in short order. This new feature saves you both time and money, less expensive than a CAD/CAM system, much easier to learn with faster results.

5 Axis CNC control. True simultaneous 5 axis machining
True 5 axis machining is now available. Smooth consistent 5 axis motion. Great for either gimble table setups or knuckle head machines. X,Y,Z,A and B motion all at the same time or in any combination. For Milling machines and CNC routers. Note: The M-39 can control up to 8 axes simultaneously.

Auto tool changer
The CENTROID CNC control can operate a wide variety of types of tool changers. Umbrella type to Swing arm -- the Centroid provides fast repeatable tool changes. Automatic batch measurement is also available when used with our TT-1 Auto Tool Setter. Just highlight the tools you would like to measure and the batch feature will automatically retrieve, measure and replace each tool automatically.

Rigid tapping, Deep hole tapping and Threadmilling
With a CENTROID M39 you can make all kinds of threads.You can use Tapping, Rigid Tapping and Threadmilling depending on your part for the best result! CENTROID's advanced rigid tapping is simple to program and will both tap a hole in the regular way AND can also use the deep hole cycle to make a large diameter thread. Deep hole tapping taps a hole much in the same way as you would by hand. It allows you to tap a much larger hole than the HP of your machine would normally allow!

Digitizing: Turn your milling machine into a copy machine.
Copy and Cut 2D and 3D shapes. Centroid's affordable, effective Digitizing is the simplest CNC Digitizing on the market. Just record and play back. Do you have a 2D contour such as a CAM or a 3D part like a mold or plug? But no print? Let our Digitizing feature copy the part for you. Digitizing turns your milling machine into a copy machine. Centroid has overcome the cumbersome problems associated with Digitizing on other controls. With a Centroid, it's actually one of the simplest features on the control to use. With our Digitizing feature you will be able to copy and reproduce an existing shape with little or no programming! No CAD/CAM necessary, however you can export the Digitizing information to a CAD/CAM system for further modification. It's very popular for repairing cylinder head combustion chamber damage, copying cams, creating molds and plugs from existing objects and many other uses. more...

Auto tool set
Setup your tools in a quarter of the time it would normally take! If you often machine short-run parts and are always setting up and tearing down for a new job, the TT-1 Auto tool set will save you tons of time while more accurately setting your tool height offsets. With the TT-1 you can create more parts per hour since the tool set up is so much faster. You'll even save time when you have to replace a dull tool with a new one in the middle of a job. The TT-1 is completely automatic. Press "measure" and the tool will automatically touch off the TT-1 and set the tool height offset in the tool library. See the TT-1 in action on our Video CD. The TT-1 plugs into the control...

Fully sealed, coolant-proof, optional Keyboard
With any CENTRIOID CNC control you can use a regular PC keyboard or our fully sealed unit. We found that about half our customers prefer a regular open style PC keyboard and the other half prefer a sealed unit. The CENTROID sealed PC keyboard is liquid-proof and provides reliable and durable keyboard operation in a shop environment.Our keyboard is: fully sealed, coolant proof, long lasting in shop environment, has tactile feedback, and has raised buttons with distinct action.
