Multi-axis Motion Control

May 6, 2008
The Euro209 is a high-performance motion and machine control solution that combines up to nine selectable axes of precision-stepper or servo control with digital and analog I/O, communications interfacing and axis expansion in a single Eurocard rack-mount format.
Hardware and software features allow users to match application requirements, minimize purchase costs, and simplify software and hardware development while reducing production timescales. Up to 8 axes of stepper control are realized on a single printed circuit board that provides 2MHz stepper outputs and 6MHz encoder inputs via a 96-way rear DIN 41612 connector. For servo motor control, feature-enable codes are used in conjunction with optional 4- or 8-axis DAC boards for +/-10V control with ultra-precise 16-bit resolution. The controller includes an Ethernet port for PC programming and fast data communication. Other built-in factory communications protocols include: Modbus-TCP, Telnet, DeviceNet slave and CANopen master, along with RS232 and RS485 ports.Trio Motion Technology Inc.www.triomotion.com412.968.9744
