MULTI AXIS MACHINE CONTROLLERS
Multi-Axis Ethernet PowerLink
Features
- Control of 16 Ethernet Powerlink drives
- 10/100 Base-T Ethernet
- USB 2.0
- EtherNet/IP compatibility
- CANopen expansion 1/0
- CE (EMC & LVD), UL and cUL Recognized
- Multitasking of up to 24 simultaneous programs
- Interpolation of 8 axes in any combination
- ACR9030 has up to 8 axes of analog servo or stepper control
- Replace the traditional +/- 10V analog control and feedback cables with an all digital Ethernet network
- Real Time, deterministic data to and from nodes is guaranteed each cycle with the Slot Communications Network Protocol
- Proven, robust CANopen profiles are sent over proven, robust Ethernet hardware
- Standard TCP/IP communications does not interrupt determinism, as it takes place during the asynchronous slot at the end of the cycle
- Excellent performance with timing jitter <1us
The Geo Brick is capable of controlling up to eight axes with direct-PWM commands
- Turbo PMAC2 CPU (for kinematics, open servo, NC applications)
- Fully Configurable via USB2.0 and/or Ethernet TCP/IP (100 Base-T)
- Operation from a PC
- Stand-alone operation
- Linear and circular interpolation
- 256 motion programs capacity
- 64 asynchronous PLC program capability
- Rotating buffer for large programs
- 36-bit position range (± 64 billion counts)
- Adjustable S-curve acceleration and deceleration
- Cubic trajectory calculations, splines
- Set and change parameters in real time
- Torque, Velocity and Position control standard
- Small footprint saves space
- 16 inputs (expandable to 32 with option)
- Eight thermal-fuse protected outputs (expandable to 16 with option)
- Primary encoder for each axis with TTL differential/single-ended inputs with A, B quadrature channels and C index channel, 10 MHz cycle rate, and digital Hall-effect inputs
- Optional analog inputs and outputs, ± 10VDC
