FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AMCI BRINGS AFFORDABLE MOTION TO ALLEN-BRADLEY
PLCS and PACS
Terryville, CT - AMCI announces budget-friendly solutions
when adding motion (stepper or servo) to your Allen-Bradley
PLC. Solutions include a 2-axis plug-in module for 1769 CompactLogix
I/O, and 1-axis module for 1734 Point I/O. The 3602 module
plugs directly in the 1769 CompactLogix PAC, and the 3401L
plugs into the 1734 Point I/O. Both of these modules have
24Vdc open collector sinking 200kHz outputs, making them ideal
upgrades for applications currently using PTO outputs. AMCI
has introduced these modules to the market with low prices
to keep cost of ownership at a minimum. Both the 3401L and
3602 are 100% compatible with Allen Bradley PLCs, and are
easy to program using Allen-Bradley’s RSLogix software.
Point
I/O 3401L Motion Module
The new 3401L modules meet Rockwell Automation’s performance
requirements while delivering a great value at under $300
per axis. AMCI’s 3401L
1-axis motion modules are compatible with all Point I/O
network bases (EtherNet/IP, ControlNet, DeviceNet, etc.).
The modules feature two discrete inputs, and can control the
velocity and position of a stepper motor. AMCI’s 3401L
modules were designed for applications where flexibility and
low-cost of ownership are key for successful control system
design and operation.
CompactLogix 3602 Motion module
AMCI’s 3602
2-axis stepper/servo controllers are similar to the 3601
(1-axis controller); with additional features and a low cost
of under $450 per axis. Additional features/capabilities include
an additional axis of motion and coordinated linear and circular
interpolated commands. AMCI 3602 modules are easy to program
with no extra software required, and offer a wide range of
motion commands including registration, jogging/changing speed
on the fly, and blend move. These modules are designed to
provide sophisticated stepper control, or a cost effective
servo solution.
AMCI is the only Rockwell Automation Encompass Partner to
offer a complete selection of motion
control products. Because AMCI products are 100% compatible
with Allen-Bradley PLCs, you can be confident that their solutions
will work for your application.
