Motion CPU module

The motion CPU module is incorporated into the multiple CPU configuration, separating the CPU load efficiently.
High-speed general control and high-accuracy motion control are achieved, thereby contributing to high-speed and high-accuracy machine processing.

Interface

Features<sup>High-speed and large-capacity communications between the CPU modules</sup>

  • Large-capacity data communication
  • In the multiple CPU configuration with the programmable controller CPU module and motion CPU module, a large memory area shared for high-speed data communication is provided
  • High-speed communications are very useful when there is a need to instantaneously transfer a large amount of information such as cam data, thereby simplifying programming even further
  • Useful for production lines responding to high variety and variable quantity production where recipe data needs to be instantly reflected to the motor operation according to commands from the computer
  • *1.As compared to current Mitsubishi Electric products.

Various applications easily realized

  • Synchronous control
  • Vision system
  • G-code
  • Simple configuration of a converting equipment that requires high-precision synchronization between motors and stable machining with constant tension
  • In cooperation with the vision system, it is possible to configure an alignment device that moves accurately, quickly and continuously according to the device position
  • Execution of G-code programs used in a processing machine enables simple machine tool and punching

Motion SFC program with easy-to-understand processing steps

  • Flowchart
  • Event responsiveness
  • The motion CPU module is programmed using the SFC*2 type language which enables programming in clearly identifiable steps
  • The motion SFC program is extremely useful for equipment and production lines requiring fast response
  • *2.SFC: Sequential Function Chart
