Summary:In this paper, a mini CNC machine tool with three translational axis and open-architecture control system is being considered. Existing CAD/CAM software environment was used in order to create adequate corresponding virtual machine and to enable CNC program development and testing for the specific platform. Prototype of the machine was made utilizing parts salvaged from multiple CD/DVD drives. Control system hardware is realized in two ways: based on PC platform and based on Raspberry Pi 3B+, while the software part uses open-architecture LinuxCNC. Experiments were performed in order to verify proper functioning of the entire system.
