3. The CNC 2D PLOTTER is obtained by integrating a
computer processor that enables the programs to be
edited and stored in computer memory. The plotter
machine executes its functions based on special
instructions or commands known as the G-codes. The
G-code gives the direction to the tool for the movement
of all three axes. The tool can also be chosen based on
the desired outcome. The axes have the potential to
create 2-D images on plain surfaces or any other
material. The plotter machine is so versatile that it can
be used for everyday simple tasks to the most
specialized, complex tasks as well. The position of the
tool is controlled by a stepper motor to provide high
accuracy in movements. The plotting area can be
increased for commercial purposes as per requirement.

5. 1.) ARDUINO UNO
Arduino UNO is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P.
It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used
As PWM outputs), 6 analog input a 16 MHz ceramic resonator,
a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header and a reset button.
It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller
simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable per power it with a AC-to-DC
Adapter or battery to get started. You can tinker with your UNO
without worrying too much about doing something wrong, worst case scenario
you can replace the chip for a few dollars and start over again.
