I am currently completing my post-graduate work and I constructed a 3-axis milling machine as part of the scope of work. I initially purchased a motion controller and stepper driver that was recommended to me. Initially it ran well and then the USB connection would disconnect and when re-connecting miss commands in the Gcode. There was no support for this product so I was stuck. I then did investigation and came across the Kflop and Kstep. I wrote numerous e-mails to Tom asking question after ... Read More
I am currently completing my post-graduate work and I constructed a 3-axis milling machine as part of the scope of work. I initially purchased a motion controller and stepper driver that was recommended to me. Initially it ran well and then the USB connection would disconnect and when re-connecting miss commands in the Gcode. There was no support for this product so I was stuck. I then did investigation and came across the Kflop and Kstep. I wrote numerous e-mails to Tom asking question after question as I was nervous and worried that perhaps I was missing something with regards the other board. The pre-sales support I received was amazing. I eventually bought the Kflop and Kstep once I received the funds from the university and all I can say is... Wow!! The stepper motors run cool, the functionality to setup the hardware is great and the software KMotion and KMotionCNC is so easy to use. I would highly recommend Dynomotion products. Excellent products and best in the industry support. Thank you!! You saved my project!!
I designed and built a 5-axis hot wire foam cutting machine for a project at school. I am a mechanical engineering student, so C-Code and motor control was obviously not my speciality. However, I still chose to buy the KFLOP and two KSTEPS, and I am extremely happy with my choice. The documentation on the website is very complete. Each time that I had a specific question, Tom answered to me within an hour with THE solution to my problem. The KSTEPS are running like magic. They produce almost ... Read More
I designed and built a 5-axis hot wire foam cutting machine for a project at school.

The documentation on the website is very complete. Each time that I had a specific question, Tom answered to me within an hour with THE solution to my problem.The KSTEPS are running like magic. They produce almost no heat (Contrary to the normal Drives that I tried before).In hot wire foam cutting, it is very important to have constant speed during machining. In the KFLOP settings, it is possible to adjust a «smoothing» parameter so the speed is as constant as possible. My motors are running so fine, it's like a melody when they change their frequency during the machining of a complex shape!!Here's a video of our final machine: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx384y5LrIxvVGFPRHpRMzJOMjA/view?usp=sharingYou want top quality product with excellent customer support? Go with Dynomotion!
I replaced a Dynapath 10 on my Bridgeport mill with kflop+kanalog. The process went without a hitch over a month or so of weekends and the system is a joy to use. The machine is smoother, easier to program and much more accurate.I can't comment on the support because I HAVEN'T HAD TO USE IT YET!!!!This is the best product on the market today to use when replacing old CNC controllers!.
Nothing but praise..(user for 3 years) I was looking to build a cnc machine for a while, but couldn't decide which direction to go, so started buying components on ebay like servo drives and controler even bought the software (Mach III). Lucky enough I found a second hand EDM machine from 1995 (good for cnc milling rebuild), the control panel has gone up in smoke (so the price was very cheap), it has 3 Heinenhain glass scales and C3 ball screws. So I started to get very excited about the ... Read More
Nothing but praise..(user for 3 years) I was looking to build a cnc machine for a while, but couldn't decide which direction to go, so started buying components on ebay like servo drives and controler even bought the software (Mach III). Lucky enough I found a second hand EDM machine from 1995 (good for cnc milling rebuild), the control panel has gone up in smoke (so the price was very cheap), it has 3 Heinenhain glass scales and C3 ball screws. So I started to get very excited about the accuracy that this machine could deliver. After some research I realised that we needed a different controler, one that could create the second closed loop (feedback from the glass scales on the axis) as well as the analogue output needed for the servo drives, so the Kflop extended with the Kanalog was the solution for me. First I started using Mach III as the interface, but after a while I realised that using the KmotionCNC was very easy, no more pluggin for Mach III, it was all we needed and more, fast accurate and stable. The quality of products, and the outstanding service, just incredible, would recommend Dynomotion to anyone. Keep up the good work Henk
I am using the KFLOP + SnapAmp in my SuperMax CNC. Been running it for about 2 years flawlessly. Ran into an issue that ended up being the USB cable but Dynomotion was there to help me figure it out. The support folks at Dynomotion are incredible. They are always there to help, superb! Thanks!
At present i have 3 kflop board (the first on 2012) for and ATC router, and ATC lathe and an wire EDM (under construction) I'm not a programmer (I would like underline this) and I only have praises for this motion control board AND for the technical support of Tom and all your staff, this is extremely important, the program is constantly being updated, adding new features, and fixing bugs, helping users in their particular applications, all in a short time, about the board it's a ...

After my first retrofit of a CNC knee mill with steppers and glass scales(2008 time frame),i was searching for a way to close the loop. Came across the KFLOP board and was amazed how well the stepper closed loop works. The support from Tom is the best i have ever seen...when a wall appears he stomps it down flat and keeps going. I have said this about very few people. Currently using a KFLOP on my mill/drill stepper with glass scales at home. Here is a link to it, the page is a little out of ... Read More
After my first retrofit of a CNC knee mill with steppers and glass scales(2008 time frame),i was searching for a way to close the loop. Came across the KFLOP board and was amazed how well the stepper closed loop works. The support from Tom is the best i have ever seen...when a wall appears he stomps it down flat and keeps going. I have said this about very few people. Currently using a KFLOP on my mill/drill stepper with glass scales at home. Here is a link to it, the page is a little out of date. http://www.homecncstuff.elementfx.com/MillDrill.html The price of board might seem high compared to other USB boards, but the power and options in a KFLOP is much more than the others, especially if you know C programming. I would recommend this board on any level from home hobby to industrial. Thanks again.
We use the Kflop cards for different projects, running 7 different programs at the same time on one card helped a lot in our projects. The support is ok, documentation about some programming aspects could be a little better in some cases. But it is a great product.
I own 2 kflops, one for my cnc router and another for my cnc mill. The product and support are simply outstanding. Tom really goes way out of his way to quickly and expertly respond to all your questions. Kflp is an amazing and extremely versatile product. New features and addons are constantly added to improve the features and versatility of the product. This is a professional grade product with top quality components. I am a very happy customer and highly recommend this product.
