With these ToolControllers there is no need to transport high amp, high frequency pulses to your tools.
You just add power and low level signal wires.
By doing so we eliminate the EMC generated over long wires created by stepper motor drivers and other high power PWM signals.
Allowing you to comply with UL and EC standards.
