Klipper for Plasma

This is a Klipper fork dedicated to plasma CNC machines, work is still in progress and any help is welcome !

IMPORTANT : This is not a stable release. It is currently in use on a real machine and performs fine, but there are still many input protections missing. A non experienced user can send invalid gcode sequence leading to unattended consequences.

You can read documentation here, or have a look at Sheetah, a plasma CAM software designed to work in pair with Klipper and enabling THC graphical monitoring.

Features

  • Everything from the original Klipper. This version will kept rebased on official as long as possible to benefits from updates and bugfixes.
  • Integrated THC (Torch Height Control).
  • THC real-time monitoring.
  • THC anti-dive, z axis pauses under a specified feedrate.
  • Instant stepper reactivity, required for precise piercing delays but not possible with original Klipper implementation.
  • Various plasma related safety improvements (PC independant emergency stop, input commands timeout during cuts, serial link loss detection)
