RAMPS interfaces an Arduino Mega with the  powerful Arduino MEGA platform and has plenty room for expansion. The  modular design includes plug in stepper drivers and extruder control  electronics on an Arduino MEGA shield for easy service, part  replacement, upgrade-ability and expansion. Additionally, a number of  Arduino expansion boards can be added to the system as long as the main  RAMPS board is kept to the top of the stack. This board is mostly based  on Adrian's Pololu_Electronics and work by Tonok. Copper etch resists  methods suggested by Vik. Also inspired by Vik's work with EasyDrivers.  circuit design based mostly on Adrian's Pololu_Electronics Joaz at  RepRapSource.com supplied initial pin definitions and many design  improvements. Much inspiration, suggestions, and ideas from Prusajr,  Kliment, Maxbots, Rick, and many others in the RepRap community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2. Sainsmart Mega 2560 R3\u003cbr\u003eSainsmart  Mega2560 R3 is an ATmega2560 as core microcontroller development board  itself has 54 groups digital I \/ O input \/ output terminal (14 groups do  PWM outputs), 16 sets of simulation than the input side, group 4 UARTs  (hardware serial ports), using the 16 MHz crystal oscillator. With the  bootloader, download the program directly via USB without having to go  through other external writer. Supply part of the optional USB power, or  as an external power using the AC-to-DC adapter and battery. Arduino  development IDE interface is based on open-source principles, allows you  to free download for use in project work, school teaching, motor  control, interactive works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3. Sainsmart A4988 driver\u003cbr\u003eThis  product is a carrier board or breakout board for Allegro's A4988 DMOS  Microstepping Driver with Translator and Overcurrent Protection by  Pololu; we therefore recommend careful reading of the A4988 datasheet  before using this product. This stepper motor driver lets you control  one bipolar stepper motor at up to 2 A output current per coil.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.SainSmart Mechanical Endstop Switch\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe mechanical endstop is a simple solution to a simple problem. We want   to be able to detect when an X\/Y\/Z stage has reached its minimum or   maximum. Instead of messing with flags or complicated light beam   interruptors, we use a mechanical switch. If we place the switch in the   path of the stage, then the stage itself will simply close the switch   when it moves against it. Other than properly positioning the switch, we   do not need to modify the stage at all. If you're worried about   reliability, you can sleep well at night. The switches we use are rated   for 1 million operations before failure. Since we only use the switches   once per print, that means you'll be able to do one million prints   before having to replace the switch.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.SainSmart 2004 Smart Yellow LCD Controller With Adapter\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis Smart Controller contains a SD-Card reader, an rotary encoder and a  20 Character x 4 Line Yellow LCD display. You can easy connect it to your  Ramps board using the \"smart adapter\" included.\u003cbr\u003eAfter connecting this  panel to your Ramps you don't need your pc any more, the Smart  Controller supplies power for your SD card. Further more all actions  like calibration, axes movements can be done by just using the rotary  encoder on the Smart Controller. Print your 3D designs without PC, just  with a g-code design stored on the SD card.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #339ccc;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage list:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart RAMPS 1.4\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart Mega 2560 R3\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart 2004 Smart Yellow LCD Controller With Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart SD RAMPS Breakout Board \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e5x SainSmart A4988 driver\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x USB Cable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart RAMPS 1.4 wiring cable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e6x SainSmart Mechanical Endstop Switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x SainSmart Cooler Fan for 3D ramps\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SainSmart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49290301407386,"sku":"20-013-205","price":48.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/sainsmart-ramps-1-4-mega-2560-r3-a4988-mechanical-endstop-3d-printer-kit-1","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
