Galil: Multi-Axis Motion Controller (DMC-40x0 Series)

Galil's multi-axis motion controllers are designed to provide the ultimate performance and flexibility for your application. The DMC-40x0 Series is Galil’s most advanced multi-axis motion control solution, while the DMC-41x3 Series is designed to provide the best value and performance that meets the needs of most applications. Each model operates stand-alone or is networked to a PC via Ethernet 100Base-T, RS232, or USB. Integrated drives for steppers and servos minimize space, cost, and wiring. Plenty of uncommitted I/O for synchronizing motion with external events.

Ethernet/RS232 Multi-Axis Motion Controllers, 1-8 axes

The DMC-40x0 motion controller is Galil's highest performance, stand-alone motion controller. It belongs to Galil's latest generation motion controller family, which accepts encoder inputs up to 22 MHz, provides servo update rates as high as 32 kHz, and processes commands as fast as 40 microseconds-10 times the speed of prior generation controllers.

The DMC-40x0 is a full-featured motion controller packaged with optional multi-axis drives in a compact, metal enclosure. The unit operates stand-alone or interfaces to a PC with Ethernet 10/100Base-T or RS232. The controller includes optically isolated I/O, high-power outputs capable of driving brakes or relays, and analog inputs for interfacing to analog sensors. The DMC-40x0 controller and drive unit accepts power from a single 20-80 VDC source. The DMC-40x0 is available in one through eight-axis formats, and each axis is user-configurable for stepper or servo motor operation.

With a powerful RISC processor, the DMC-40x0 controllers provide such advanced features as PID compensation with velocity and acceleration feedforward, program memory with multitasking for simultaneously running eight applications programs, and uncommitted I/O for synchronizing motion with external events. Modes of motion include point-to-point positioning, position tracking, jogging, linear and circular interpolation, contouring, electronic gearing and ecam.

Like all Galil controllers, programming the DMC-40x0 is simplified with two-letter, intuitive commands and a full set of software tools such as GalilSuite for servo tuning and analysis.
