A-B IMC™ S Class Compact Motion Controllers
Concurrent, independent, or synchronous motion on all axes.
Interpolated motion on up to three axes.
• Wide position, speed, acceleration, and deceleration ranges for
precise control.
• Separately programmable acceleration and deceleration rates for
maximum versatility.
• Trapezoidal, parabolic, and S-curve velocity profiles.
• Rotary mode with electronic unwind allows unlimited position
range for rotary axes.
• Motion merge function allows seamless transition between all
types of motion.
• Most motion parameters (including master axis for electronic
gears and cams) can be changed on-the-fly with no delays.
• Powerful floating-point math capabilities including
transcendental functions (sin, cos, log, etc.).
• Sophisticated Nested Digital Serve Control Loop with automatic
servo setup for quick and easy servo tuning.
• Isolation of all external connections from the microprocessor
logic for reliable performance.
• 4 MHz maximum feedback count rate allows high speed
operation without sacrificing resolution.
• Encoder loss detection protects operators and machinery from
damage in the event of encoder feedback failure.
• Isolated 16-bit DACs for smooth motion. Software offset
correction eliminates drift with analog servo drives.
• Field-configurable servo outputs allow independent selection of
±10V or ±150 mA signal format for each axis.
• Programmable position lock and position error tolerances for
servo fault protection.
• Programmable directional software travel limits for enhanced
overtravel protection.
• Velocity feedforward to reduce following error.
• Four optically isolated inputs for a home switch, positive and
negative overtravel switches, and a drive fault signal for each
axis.
• Relay-contact drive enable output for each axis.
• Optically isolated high-speed position registration input for each
axis for position synchronization and registration applications.
• CPU watchdog with front-panel LED indicator for fail-safe
protection.
• AxisLink option allows real-time axis coordination between
controllers for distributed, multi-axis systems
