Allient Rochester (formerly ORMEC Systems) announces the SMLC-e multi-axis motion controller with EtherCAT and the EC Series EtherCAT servo drive, the latest additions to its Servo Control Solutions product line.
These new solutions offer enhanced performance and control for a wide range of demanding applications, including aerospace & defense, medical & life sciences equipment, semiconductor equipment, packaging, web tension control, and factory & industrial automation.
SMLC-e Multi-Axis Motion Controller
The SMLC-e controller is an EtherCAT master with IEC 61131-3 programming tools and powerful motion control software for up to 24 highly coordinated axes of EtherCAT networked drives. It is offered in 4 models with full IEC 61131-3 programmability and the CODESYS 3.5 environment enables highly efficient application programming of complex motion and PLC machine control tasks.
EC Series EtherCAT Servo Drive
The EC Series provides high performance control of brushless rotary and linear motors, brush motors, and voice coil motors while supporting a wide range of feedback options with EtherCAT connectivity. EC Series drives operate on 120-240 or 240-480 VAC input power and have output short-circuit and over-voltage protection.
These two new products work seamlessly together and with 3rd party EtherCAT devices. Both are offered with the industry standard CiA402 protocol allowing them to be used with any CiA402 compliant EtherCAT motion controller, servo drive or I/O device.
