Introduction
The iMC series CAN-controllers are compact, powerful drive controllers for 2 up to 6
linear or rotational axes. The shapely table housing integrates all control components
that are needed for most different automation tasks. They include the control
computer, motor power amplifiers, I/O module and security circuit module.
Additionally a 10,2” LC-Display and a keyboard are integrated. A CANopen PCI-card
that works as interface is mounted into the control computer. This card works as
CAN-master to communicate with the power amplifiers for the axes and other CAN
peripheral devices such as I/O-module. The CNC Motion control allows the
interpolation of up to 6 axes (linear, circular and helix), on-line and look ahead
continuous path (CP) machining as well as the control of up to 6 handling axes.
The CAN-controllers series
iMC-B
are able to drive up to 6 brushed DC-servo-
motors. The used power amplifiers type
iMD10
have a jerk limit and standstill
monitoring (till safety category 3).
Controller’s series
iMC-V
are able to drive up to 6 brushless DC-servo-motors. The
used power amplifiers type
iMD20
have a jerk limit and standstill monitoring (till
safety category 3).
