Duet3 closed loop options
-
Good morning!
I know that this has been discussed several times already. I started this thread to collect the available closed loop options for the Duet3.
I have two custom large format printers in the making. One with a build volume of 1000x1000x1000mm for printing architecture models and one with 500x500x1000mm for printing speaker enclosures. With a Build volume this large speed and reliability are essential. Therefore, a closed-loop motion system is a "must have" for my clients.
For the Duet3 I have found the following options:
-
Duet3 + Duet3 Expansion 1XD + external closed loop stepper drivers that accept step/dir signals
-
@dc42 I am aware that there is a closed-loop extension board in the making for the Duet3. Is there already a rough estimate on the release date or beta test?
-
Is there an alternative "of the shelve" closed loop solution available that support the CAN FD protocol?
Cheers,
Max -

These days we are going to test the DUET 1XD controller specifically with the OrientalMotor AZM66AK and the AZD-K controller. It is the potentialy simplest option we have found to use real closed loop in the Duet ecosystem.
We need to receive a controller to adapt the control signals from 24V to 5V and viceversa for Go-to-Home (IN) and Alarm (OUT) signals. We are still not sure how to integrate these signals into RRF, but we will put the results in the forum in a few days.
