Presentation
Modicon LMC078 motion controllers are designed for compact machines that
require a high level of performance in motion control applications as well as control
system and machine communication function management.
Their high processing power enables:
> Control of 8 synchronized axes in 1 ms/16 synchronized axes in 2 ms
> Execution of a Boolean instruction in 2 ns
> A minimum cycle time of 250 μsControl function
Modicon LMC078 motion controllers integrate the following standard motion control
functions:
> Velocity control and torque control
> Relative or absolute positioning
> Cam profiles for slave axes and programmable cam switch control
> Virtual axes
> Electronic gearing function for position control
> Linear and circular interpolations via the G-code function
> Master and virtual axes via external encoder
Application
Modicon LMC078 motion controllers, combined with a dedicated Lexium 32S offer,
provide a simple yet powerful solution for the following applications:
> Machines performing operations “on the fly”: marking, adhesion, shearing, etc.
> Packing machines (vertical and horizontal bagging): forming, filling, and sealing,
etc.
> Handling machines: packaging, sorting, palletizing, etc.
