Information About motion controller
A motion controller controls the motion of some object. Frequently motion controllers are implemented using digital computers, but motion controllers can also be implemented with only analog components as well. Motion controllers are to generate the pulse signal to control the step motors and drivers and Autonics PMC Series is the controller, which operates and controls step & servo system
Implementation
Motion controllers require a load (something to be moved), a prime mover (something to cause the load to move), some sensors (to be able to sense the motion and monitor the prime mover), and a controller to provide the intelligence to cause the prime mover to move the load as desired. Just about everything that is man-made requires motion control during its manufacture, packaging, distribution or use Benefits Motion controllers are used to achieve some desired benefit(s) which can include:
- increased position and speed accuracy
- higher speeds
- faster reaction time
- increased production
- smoother movements
- reduction in costs
- integration with other automation
- integration with other processes
- ability to convert desired specifications into motion required to produce a product
- increased information and ability diagnose and troubleshoot
- increased consistency
- improved efficiency
- elimination of hazards to humans or animals
