The PanelDue is a full-colour touch-sensitive graphical control panel for 3D printers. Although primarily intended for use with Duet electronics, it should also work with other 3D printer electronics that supports a true serial port and includes the required support in the firmware.
Features include display of up to 6 hot end temperatures (up to 4 using the 4.3 inch screen), control of temperatures, head position, extrusion factors and many other parameters, display of print status and time to completion, print pause/resume/cancel buttons, and a touch keyboard allowing you to enter almost any gcode command. It works with any 3D printer electronics that supports a true serial port and includes the required support in the firmware. RepRapFirmware (available for the Duet series and for RADDS) has full support, and we are working with the developers of Repetier and Smoothieware to add support for them.
To avoid burdening the main printer electronics with the task of updating the display, the PanelDue has its own 32-bit ARM processor.
We manufacture and sell the display controller board, and optionally a cable to connect it to your electronics. You need to add a compatible 4.3, 5 or 7 inch TFT screen with touch panel. Alternatively, you can buy a complete kit including 4.3 inch screen from Think3DPrint3D or Filastruder.
