The Latest 3rd Generation Revolutionary TB660HG 3 Axis Stepper Driver Set (TB3H-CD-S)
Description
Comparing with the previous 3rd generation TB6560AHQ Stepper Driver, besides including all the
functions that the 3rd generation TB6560AHQ Stepper Driver has, this newly released 3rd generation
TB6600HG Stepper Driver was specially developed for bigger stepper motors which have higher current.
As long as the current range of the stepper motors is within 0.2 ~ 5.0 amps, all the 2 Phase or 4 Phase of
Nema17, Nema23, Nema24 stepper motors will work perfectly with this new TB6600HG Stepper Driver.
Actually, the 3rd generation TB6600HG Stepper Drivers have two types of versions, one is the standard
version, and another is the professional version. Compare to the standard version, the professional
version mainly has two more functions than the standard version, one is the "computer G-code
recording function", and another is the "manual programing function". Except these two functions,
these two types of versions have no other differences.
Firstly, both of these two types of versions have upgraded their PCB boards, the re-designing the
PCB board will avoid the TB6600 chip on the board being easily blown as the previous version.
With the embedded intelligent memory chip, the professional version of this 3rd generation 3 Axis
TB6600HG Stepper Driver can easily record the G-coderunning on the CNC software (e.g. Mach3,
EMC2, KCAM4, etc..) of the computer, and then rerun the recorded G-code to make the stepper
motor work without the computer any more.
Furthermore, the upgraded external manual
control tools (display panel and control pad) on the
professional version can be not only used for manually controlling the stepper motor, but also
manually programming the G-code. All the manually Programmed G-code will also be recorded in
to the embedded intelligent memory chip, and then we also can easily run the recorded G-code to
control the stepper motor. Considering that the computer G-code recording functionis enough for all
the three axis working without computer, to avoid repeated function, the manual programming
function is mainly designed for one axis to make linear motion, therefore, the three axis cannot be
manually programmed simultaneously. This function is widely used on working which just need one
Axis, such as RBI machine, Conveyor etc.
Lately, both of these two types of versions adopt the totally enclosed optical isolation and singlechip PWM bipolar sinusoidal chopper to insure working at low noise & vibration, and avoid
creeping at a low speed. It is very suitable for driving the 2-phase and 4-phase hybrid stepping
motors.
In short, the qualities and functions of the new 3rd generation advanced 3 Axis TB6600HG Stepper
Driver are revolutionized from the previous version. So, we believe that these two types of versions
must satisfy different users on CNC DIY.

Features
High performance, cost-effective.
Automatic idle-current reduction.
To manually control the stepper motor, both of the standard and professional drivers have been
equipped with the display panel and control pad.
Automatically identify both of the computer and
control pad, functions of the computer and control
pad can be switched intelligently for each other without any interference.
Display panel can real-time trail the running path of G-Code on the computer or input by the control
pad, and then completely and Simultaneous display the changing of each axis'(X, Y, Z axis etc.) values
on its screen.
Both of the standard version and professional
version are compatible with the Mach2,
Mach3(Default Software), LinuxCNC(EMC2), KCAM4 CNC Software, etc.. Besides, the
professional version also can automatically trail the path running path of G-Code from the CNC software
(e.g. Mach3, EMC2, KCAM4, etc.) of the computer and record the G-code into the memory chip;
Easy to repeatedly run the G-code to control the stepper motors without computer.
The professional version also support manual
programming via the control pad, as long as input
the required values on one axis and record them in the memory chip of the driver, and then run these
recorded values to drive the axis to make linear motion, widely used on RBI machine, Conveyor and so
on.
Automatically finish Tool-settings on X, Y, Z Axis via the control pad, without the support of the
computer.
Compatible with all the motors with 0.2A ~ 5.0A
(peak) rated current, four types of adjustable output
current can be set on the driver board.
1, 2, 4(new mode), 8, 16 adjustable microstep
control, motors run more precisely and smoothly.
Overload, overcurrent, overheat, overvoltage and
undervoltage protection to avoid damaging your
computer and devices.
Totally enclosed optical isolation and single-chip PWM bipolar sinusoidal chopper to insure motors
work at low noise & vibration, and avoid motors creep at a low speed.
With one 0 ~ 10V PWM Signal output port for
speed adjustment and one Relay control port.
5 types of input control in manual control interface, to set Limit, Estop, Midpoint-Setting, Cutterpresetting/Tool-Setting etc..
Cooling Aluminium & high intensity PVC Box
Design for Cooling, and protect the driver board
from being damaged by dirt, dust or other liquids.
Applications
For processing various pattern mould.
For advising, such as brand, architechture mould,
badge, nameplate, display boards, doorplate,
furniture decoration, etc..
For carving portrait, scenery, handwriting, sealing, etc..
Suitable for any small-and-medium automatic
equipment with CNC controller, such as X-Y-Z
tables, labeling machines, laser cutters, engraving machines, and pick-place devices.

Further Details
DC 12-48V power supply selection
12~24V DC power supply for Nema 17 stepper
motors
24~36V DC power supply for Nema 23/24 stepper motors
36~45V DC power supply for Nema 34 stepper
motors
High(45V) voltage will be easy to cause the driver and stepper motors to be damaged !
Please SHUT DOWN the power before you plug or unplug the connectors to avoid burning up the
board.
Output current of the power supply can be calculated by the following formula:
Output current = Rated current of your stepper motors * quantity + 2A
For example, if you want to drive 3 * 2A Nema 23 stepper motors, theoretically 24V 8A DC power
supply is recommended, but higher power such as 24V 10A/15A also will be good. If you are not sure
about the selection of power supply, please feel free to contact us for help
