Intro:-
The Smoothieboard is a powerful 32bit numerical fabrication controller designed to run the Open-Source Smoothieware firmware, designed by a dedicated community of volunteers. These boards are a level up from the 8bit Arduino’s and will provide you with a more seamless 3d printing, laser cutting, or CNC Milling experience.
Laser Cutting & Engraving
Smoothieboard’s are designed to run on the most powerful hardware in their price range at the time of their conception, to be easy to expand for new and adventurous uses, to be easy to develop on, and to be simple to use for normal users.
3D Printing

Smoothieboard Being Installed For 3D Printing
This custom made package from Everlast Concepts LLC includes a pre-installed/soldered on 1Amp switching DC to DC Regulator for converting up to 28V down to 5V. Having this regulator pre-installed allows you to have short circuit protection right out of the box and is recommended if you also intend to power an LCD screen from Smoothieboard. A commonly used LCD screen is the RepRap discount graphical LCD.
