MC Series - Motion Coordinator series for multi-axis motion control
The Motion Coordinator series of centralized controllers offer scalability, modularity and flexibility. Scalability is offered through the choice of two different base controllers, four different servo drive series and over 15 daughter board options.
All Motion Coordinators are programmed with Control Techniques' free MotionPerfect2 software. Modularity is offered by selecting only the daughter board required for your specific application. Finally, flexibility is offered by the controller’s ability to perform interpolated, point-to-point, camming and electronic gearing.
MC206X
2-7 Axis Control
The MC206X is a very capable all-in-one motion controller and integrates easily with Control Techniques scalable servo offering. The MC206X can coordinate 2-4 Control Techniques drives via encoder feedback, analog output. The MC206X comes standard with onboard I/O for high speed digital inputs, outputs, analog inputs, and an additional encoder reference signal.
The MC206X with a SERCOS Daughter Board can coordinate up to 7 SM-SERCOS equipped Unidrive SP drives. Capable also means, the MC206X is capable of Point to Point motion, Camming, Velocity, Torque, and Circular Interpolated motion all programmed using the simple and free MotionPerfect2 programming software.
