ShopBot Increases Performance of PRSstandard CNC Systems
Durham, North Carolina—ShopBot Tools, Inc., has introduced a new control box and control board for its PRSstandard CNC systems. The new PRSstandard Control System includes RBK Series motor drivers contained in a sealed, aluminum, industrial unit. The RBK drivers provide higher speeds and smoother cutting than ShopBot’s previous generations of PRSstandard models.
The system has been reconfigured to minimize wiring and connection stability and includes 12 input and 12 output lines, which can be used for standard accessories such as the zeroing plate and the ShopBot Air Drill, and it features an integrated disconnect switch that serves as an emergency stop for the tool. The new PRSstandard now bridges the gap between entry-level CNCs and ShopBot’s industrial PRSalpha models.
Any ShopBot customer who orders a new PRSstandard CNC system will receive the new control box, and upgrades are available for current PRSstandard owners. High- and low-resolution images can be found HERE.
