It does not provide drawing (CAD - Computer Aided Design) or G-code generation from the drawing (CAM - Computer Automated Manufacturing) functions.
它并不提供绘图（CAD-计算机辅助设计）或生成G代码（CAM-计算机辅助制造）的功能.
* It can simultaneously move up to 6 axes and supports a variety of interfaces.
* 它能联动控制6个轴并支持各种接口。
* The control can operate true servos (analog or PWM) with the feedback loop closed by the EMC software at the computer, or open loop with "step-servos" or stepper motors.
* 控制器能在计算机上通过EMC软件操作真正的闭环司服系统,半开环或步进电机
* Motion control features include: cutter radius and length compensation, path deviation limited to a specified tolerance, lathe threading, synchronized axis motion, adaptive feedrate, operator feed override, and constant velocity control.
* 运动控制特性有包括 ：刀具半径和长度补偿，路径偏移在一个指定的公差内,车螺纹，轴的同步运动，自适应进给速度，手动控制, 恒线速度控制。
* Support for non-Cartesian motion systems is provided via custom kinematics modules. Available architectures include hexapods (Stewart platforms and similar concepts) and systems with rotary joints to provide motion such as PUMA or SCARA robots.
通过制定运动模块,提供并支持非笛卡运动系统, 可用的结构包括六脚昆虫(Stewartguguc平台或类似概念)和回转连接的运动系统如PUMA或SCARA机器人
* EMC runs on Linux using real time extensions. Support currently exists for version 2.4 and 2.6 Linux kernels with real time extensions applied by RT-Linux or RTAI patches.
* EMC 运行在扩展的实时Linux上。支持当前已有的2.4和2.6实时Linux内核, 需要应用RT-linux或RTAI补丁.
