Servos adapt to their loads
to facilitate stand-alone or distributed-control structures. Network connectivity supports Profibus, DeviceNet, Mechatrolink, and Sercos. The system supports standard A Quad B incremental encoders, Yaskawa serial encoders (Sigma I and II), resolvers, and sine-encoder feedback devices. Nonlinear-control

Ethernet Paves The Way For Simpler Distributed Motion-Control Systems
several distributed motion-control systems have been developed to try to overcome this problem. These include Sercos, Profibus, Canbus, and others. They all solved the wiring problem, but proved to have some serious limitations. Sercos, for example, controls motion well, but does not let other devices

Third time's the charm
The third generation of the Sercos network protocol, dubbed Sercos III, combines legacy Sercos with Ethernet. At last year's Hannover Fair in Germany, (IGS) announced an upgrade to the next generation of Sercos interface. The biggest change for anyone used to working with the interface is the move

Suitability of Ethernet for Motion Control
to select the appropriate network for optimum performance of their motion control system. Quite often, the two competing protocols are TCP/IP over Ethernet or a Fieldbus architecture. Examples of Fieldbus systems include CanOPEN, SERCOS, or DeviceNet. þÿ. Application Note #5449. The Suitability

Integrate and simplify
that of similar products. All but the simplest machines require both sequential and motion control. Kinetix encompasses both, from PLC and Sercos interface to servodrives and servomotors. Kinetix brings together sequential and motion control in one complete system, and spans from motors, drives and PLCs to HMI

New Connectivity Strategies in Motion Control
such as DeviceNet and Profibus; from the servo world come motion rings like MACRO and SERCOS. These new possibilities mean that there motion system designers can get the capabilities of backplane communications without worrying about mechanical fit issues. Additionally, they can eliminate the need to bring

Integrated Architecture Boosts Packaging Productivity
Architecture. We've made the motion algorithms just another element of the overall control capability, along with uniform software and SERCOS interfaces between the controllers, servo drives, and feedback devices. Traditional packaging systems, on the other hand,. Integrated Architecture Boosts
