Standalone MMC Controllers

The MMC Standalone Control for PiCPro® systems controls up to 64 axes of high-performance motion. These rugged industrial controls provide 8 digital inputs, 4 digital outputs and 1 analog Input, with expandability via our Slice and Block I/O modules and/or up to four field-installable option modules. MMC Standalone Controls can be easily programmed using our IEC 61131-based PiCPro Programming Software.

Features

  • 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64 axes of control: daisy-chain up to 16 Digital MMC Smart Drives off each of four branches with simple RJ45 connectors and readily available CAT5 cable
  • Single-point IEC 61131-based application programming software with the choice of graphical ladder logic, function block or structured text programming
  • Applications that require I/O beyond what is available on the control and the drives are easily expanded using Slice and Block I/O
  • User serial port provides application flexibility, supporting a local operator interface or a serial link to another control device
  • Expandable with up to four field-installable option modules, including DeviceNet, Profibus and 32 input / 32 output I/O expansion modules
  • Built-in 10/100 Ethernet port for connecting to third-party devices, transferring data and running PiCPro® over Ethernet either directly or remotely
  • Real-time data from the system drives, such as torque, current and fault history, is available to your application program over Digital Link
  • Download firmware or parameters to all drives on the network at once with a single click of the mouse using PiCPro
  • Motor feedback for Kollmorgen AKM™, Cartridge DDR® or Housed DDR Series servomotors

 

Benefits

  • Simple programming with powerful capabilities for complex, high-performance industrial applications
  • Easy I/O, communication and device expandability
  • Single-point motion control, process control, logic control and drive setup
  • Superior performance based on real-time feedback from all connected drives
  • Rugged standalone control designed to withstand vibration and environmental contaminants in harsh industrial settings
