CJ1W-MCH71 - MECHATROLINK-II
Motion control unit
Multi-axes motion control via high-speed
MECHATROLINK-II
• Up to 30 axes controlled with minimum wiring
• High-speed bus MECHATROLINK-II is specially
designed for motion control
• Supports position, speed and torque control
• Electronic CAM profiles and axes synchronization
• Hardware registration input for every axis
• Program control commands, like multi-task, parallel
programming and various arithmetic operations for
maximum program efficiency
• Smart active parts for OMRON HMIs
• Access to the complete system from one point
Function
Multi-axes control is made easy by freely combining control axes. Up to 32 axes can be used, including 30 physical axes and two virtual axes, and
each axis can be set individually. Position control, synchronized control (electronic gear, electronic cam, follow-up), speed control, and torque
control are all supported, enabling a wide range of applications. By using the high-speed servo communications MECHATROLINK-II, motion pro
grams, system parameters, system data, and servo drive parameters can be set and read from the software tool.
