Arduino Rotary Table Indexer. Note the 4 ribbons of swarf coming off the work. OK - Accept value entered and send to rotary table Reset - clear value and start re-selecting Deg.
Rotary Table Driven By Stepper Motor Controlled By 2 Arduino S. So the Vice President of Finance determined that I needed to use my old Heljan turntable with the Hankscraft stepper motor I bought years ago instead of buying that super duper neat Walthers turntable.

So I decided that I wanted to be able to do repetitive moves on my Sherline cnc rotary table without using my computer and Mach3. Using an Arduino Nano a 20x4 serial lcd a 4x4 matrix keypad and a pololu stepper driver I put together a simple stand alone rotary table controller. That would allow me to turn the blank bore the center and cut the teeth without needing to remount and center the work.
