FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MOTION CONTROL FOR MICROLOGIX 1762 HAS ARRIVED!
Unleash the power of your 1762 MicroLogix I/O with AMCI’s
new 3100
series two-axis motion control modules. These 2-axis controllers
plug directly into your MicroLogix PLC, and are available
in two versions: 3102 (X-Y motion control) and 3102i (X-Y
motion control + interpolation). AMCI’s 3100 series
modules provide encoder feedback in addition to a wide
range of motion commands, satisfying simple to sophisticated
application requirements. Both the 3102 and 3102i are 100%
compatible with MicroLogix 1100, 1200, and 1400, and are easy
to program using Allen-Bradley’s RSLogix 500 software.
 AMCI’s
3100 series motion modules are easy to program with no extra
software required, and offer a wide range of motion commands.
Commands include registration, jogging/changing speed on the
fly, and blend move. Linear and Circular interpolation are
exclusive to the 3102i module, enabling more sophisticated
motion control. Both modules provide encoder feedback, providing
closed loop positioning.
The 3102 module can control servo and/or stepper drives (depending
on your requirements) with step/direction input. Motion commands
include jog, home, and point-to-point control. Popular applications
for this motion controller include assembly lines, conveyor
control, in-process gauging, and valve control, to name a
few.
Developed to simplify more complex applications, the 3102i
module includes linear and circular interpolation commands.
These additional features make this module stand out with
the ability to reach specific target positions and output
contoured motion profiles. Popular applications for this more
advanced controller include high speed assembly, water jet
cutting, storage and sorting, laser trimming, needle inspection
systems, and more.
Keep an eye out for the company’s next two product
releases: Resolver and SSI interface modules for the 1762
MicroLogix I/O. Both are scheduled to release early 2010.
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.
