Description of the pictured MotionController GEL 8240:
With the GEL 8240 cam-plate controller we have combined the Control Panel with the PLC to form a multifunctional compact control for a great variety of uses.
The Motion PLC combines a cam-plate controller, Control Panel, PLC and numerous inputs / outputs to a powerful automation unit. The integrated PLC in acc. with IEC 61131 and the CNC function with interpolated axes for path control offer compact solutions with lean wiring. Up to 8 axes are controlled via the CAN-bus. Up to 3 axes are controlled via the integrated ± 10 V interface.
* Simple replacement of mechanical cam-plates and line shafts
* CNC function (up to 5 axes)
* Automation of complex moving sequences
* Ready-made solutions, e.g. 'Flying saw' or 'Rotating cutter'
* Automation of individual units and small machines without additional PLC
* Extensive library of functions
* Digital and analogue inputs / outputs integrated and expandable via CANopen interface
* OPC-server (CoDeSys)
