Sanyo Denki: Motion Controller
SANMOTION C S500 SMC500 That Can Control 7-Axis Articulated Robots
This motion controller can control 7-axis articulated robots. It can
control the motion of a variety of robots, contributing to the in-house robot
motion planning for your system.
Features
1. Abundant Robot Control Functions
This motion controller can control
industry-leading
(1) 15 robot configurations, including complex 7-axis articulated
robots.
Functions such as trajectory control and interpolated operation can be done
with ease, contributing to the in-house robot motion planning.
2. Helps Make Systems IoT-ready
This motion controller can connect to a variety of
open networks such as EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, and OPC UA.
It can contribute to making factories automated and IoT-ready by sharing
information between devices in a network in real time.
3. Reduces Development Time
This motion controller can integrate robot control
and machine control development environments into one.
This makes it possible to simulate the motion of the entire system in a single
development environment, greatly reducing the maintenance and development time
of machines.
4. Space-Saving of Equipment
The product volume has been reduced by
approximately 60% compared to our current model.
(2)
This allows it to be installed in a limited space, helping miniaturize your
system.
5. High-Speed Control of Multiple Axes
This motion controller can control a maximum of 64
motor axes with cycle time of up to 1 ms.
6. Control of Multiple Robots
This motion controller can control multiple robots
simultaneously, allowing different types of robots, e.g. assembly and sorting
robots, to be controlled with a single unit.
(1) Based on our own research as of November 30,
2021, conducted among digital I/O controllers that integrate sequence, motion,
and robot control in one unit.

and SMC265X.
