DMC-18x6 PCI Multi-Axis

• Available in 1- through 8-axis versions: DMC-18x6 (x = 1, 2, 3, ..., 8 axes)

• User-configurable for stepper or servo motors

• Supports encoder frequencies up to 12 MHz for servos and pulse outputs up to 3 MHz for steppers

• Advanced PID control with velocity and acceleration feedforward, integration limits, notch filter, and low-pass filter

• Motion modes include:

  • Jogging

  • Point-to-point positioning

  • Contouring

  • Linear and circular interpolation

  • Electronic gearing and ECAM

  • Ellipse scaling, slow-down around corners, infinite segment feed, and feedrate override

• Multitasking for concurrent execution of up to eight programs

• Non-volatile memory for storing application programs, variables, and arrays

• Optical isolation on inputs for enhanced noise immunity

• Dual encoder inputs per axis for precise feedback and synchronization

• Home input and forward/reverse limits for each axis

• 8 uncommitted digital inputs and 8 outputs

• Expandable to 64 I/O with optional DB-14064 module

• High-speed position latch and output compare

• High-density shielded cable minimizes EMI

• Direct connection to AMP-19540 4-axis drive for a cost-effective multi-axis solution

• Compatible with external drives via ICM-2900 interconnect module

• Communication drivers for Windows, QNX, and Linux

• Custom hardware and firmware options available

The DMC-18x6 Series is ideal for applications requiring high-speed, multi-axis motion control with advanced features and precise coordination.
