SMC3 - Stepper Motor Controller with Sercos® and EtherCAT® Interface
Stepper motors are ideal for cost-effective implementation of positioning functions. With the positioning mode of the SMC3 stepper motor controller, such functions can now be quickly and easily integrated in Sercos or EtherCAT networks - without high programming effort.
But also for complex motion control applications, the SMC3 stepper motor controller can be used as a cost-effective alternative to expensive servo drives.
Onboard I/Os and Stepper Motor Interface
The onboard I/Os (4 digital ouputs, 4 digital inputs and an encoder interface) allow the realization of a complete positioning axis with enable and status signals as well as inputs for limit and homing switches. The stepper motor interface is designed for 2-phase motors with up to 256 microsteps at 8A (peak) current per phase and 48VDC supply..
PLCopen Motion Control Library
The PLCopen Motion Control Library for CODESYS makes working with the SMC3 Stepper Motor Controller over EtherCAT easy. With the included function blocks even complex motion control application can be programmed simple and fast.Downloads
