SANYODENKI Releases Ultra-Compact SANMOTION C Motion Controllers With high-speed EtherCAT fieldbus

SANYO DENKI CO., LTD. has developed ultra-compact SANMOTION C (Click here to view the Catalog) motion controllers featuring high-speed EtherCAT fieldbus.

They are available in a high-performance type for controlling robots or a standard type that specializes in PTP (Point-to-Point) positioning. They are suitable for motion control applications such as robots, conveying machines, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

Features

1. Industry's Smallest Motion Controllers

These ultra-compact motion controllers measure only 120 mm (H) × 55 mm (W) × 110 mm (D). Their small footprint design supports space saving and cost reduction.

* Compared with digital I/O motion controllers capable of sequence, motion, and robot control in one unit. Based on our own research as of October 10, 2018.

2. Flexible System Configuration

The new lineup features two types: an A type which can control robots and electronic cams, and a B type which specializes in PTP motion.

It is possible to control I/O signals while performing complex multi-axis motion and robot control. This enables flexible system configurations for a variety of applications and functions.

3. IoT-enabled

Ethernet, RS-485, and USB interfaces for connecting to various peripherals come standard. It is also possible to use Modbus TCP over Ethernet.

The new models also conform to machine-to-machine (M2M) communication standard OPC-UA to seamlessly connect to various devices.

In addition, with the web server function, it is possible to monitor the operational status, and read and write program variables using a standard web browser on any PC. These models make it simple to integrate IoT technology into any system.
