They are usually chosen when simple, low cost motion control is required but are typically limited to a few axes and have limited coordination capabilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">PC based motion controllers typically consist of dedicated hardware run by a real-time operating system. They use standard computer busses such as PCI, Ethernet, Serial, USB, and others for communication between the motion controller and host system. PC based controllers generate a \u00b110V analog output voltage command for servo control and digital command signals, commonly referred to as step and direction, for stepper control. PC based motion controllers typically are used when high axes count and\/or tight coordination is required. The drawbacks of this topology include complex cabling and potentially long wiring distances between the drive and motor.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pagebuilder-column initial\" data-content-type=\"column\" data-appearance=\"full-height\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div class=\"initial\" data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">A\u00a0<strong>fieldbus based motion controller<\/strong>\u00a0topology consists of a communication interface device and intelligent drive(s). The communication interface device typically resides within a PLC or PC system and connects to a single or multiple intelligent drives. The drives contain all the functionality of the motion controller and function as a complete single axis system. Often the drives can be daisy chained to other intelligent drives on the same fieldbus.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">The benefits include all digital communication, detailed diagnostics, reduced cabling, high axes count and short wiring distance between the drive and motor. This topology has a higher cost especially at lower axes count and has limitations providing tight coordination for multiple axes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\">Asynchronous vs. Deterministic Topology:<\/h4>\n<div data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\"><strong>Asynchronous communication<\/strong>\u00a0is transmission of data, generally without the use of an external clock signal, where data can be transmitted intermittently rather than in a steady stream. Asynchronous literally means not synchronous, meaning, data is not transmitted at regular intervals, thus making possible variable bit rate, and that the transmitter and receiver clock generators do not have to be exactly synchronized all the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\"><strong>Deterministic communication<\/strong>\u00a0is the transmission of data reaching its destination in a specific, predicable time. Time critical data transfer must be guaranteed within short and precise configurable cycles, while less critical data can be transmitted in asynchronous time slots. Data reaching its destination at guaranteed times are critical for motion control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">A deterministic bus based motion controller topology splits the motion controller functionality across a communication interface device and intelligent drive via a deterministic digital network. The communication interface device typically resides within a PLC or PC system and contains the trajectory generator. The intelligent drives typically contain the control loop and interpolator and can be daisy chained to other intelligent drives on the same network. The digital network is deterministic with low jitter to allow for tight coordination in multi axes applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">The benefits include all digital communication, detailed diagnostics, reduced cabling, high axes count, tight coordination, and short wiring distance between the drive and motor. This topology has a higher cost especially at lower axes count. Examples of this topology include EtherCAT, SERCOS, Ethernet Powerlink, PROFINET IRT, SynqNet, CANopen, and others.<\/span><\/p>\n<div data-content-type=\"row\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div data-enable-parallax=\"0\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-background-type=\"image\" data-video-loop=\"true\" data-video-play-only-visible=\"true\" data-video-lazy-load=\"true\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-element=\"inner\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div data-content-type=\"divider\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<hr data-element=\"line\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<h3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\">Motion Controller Systems We Provide:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-content-type=\"row\" data-appearance=\"contained\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div data-enable-parallax=\"0\" data-parallax-speed=\"0.5\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-background-type=\"image\" data-video-loop=\"true\" data-video-play-only-visible=\"true\" data-video-lazy-load=\"true\" data-video-fallback-src=\"\" data-element=\"inner\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div class=\"pagebuilder-column-group\" data-content-type=\"column-group\" data-grid-size=\"12\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div class=\"pagebuilder-column\" data-content-type=\"column\" data-appearance=\"full-height\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<figure data-content-type=\"image\" data-appearance=\"full-width\" data-element=\"main\">\n<div class=\"zoomWrap\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div class=\"zoomWrap\" data-was-processed=\"true\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.electromate.com\" rel=\"noopener\" data-link-type=\"default\" data-element=\"link\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pagebuilder-mobile-hidden loading alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.electromate.com\/media\/catalog\/category\/io-controllers.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"352\" height=\"210\" data-element=\"desktop_image\" data-was-processed=\"true\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pagebuilder-column\" data-content-type=\"column\" data-appearance=\"full-height\" data-background-images=\"{}\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<div data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\" data-was-processed=\"true\">\n<h4>I\/O Controllers<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,helvetica,arial; font-size: small;\">Provides fast I\/O handling and logic control.
