Multi-Axis Control via Modbus RTU (RS485)COOL MUSCLE 3M (CM3M) is an integrated servo system combining drivers, encoders and the devices required for motor control. The CM3M operates as a slave unit and supports connection of up to 32 axes, with a PLC or PC used as the master controller to coordinate motion across the system.
Wire savingThe CM3M requires only power and communication cables, eliminating the need for extensive point-to-point wiring. This reduces installation complexity and shortens commissioning time compared with conventional distributed drive architectures.
Grouping FunctionWhen multiple devices share the same motor configuration, the grouping function allows those devices to be assigned to a group so that they can be controlled simultaneously, simplifying coordinated motion setup.
Technical specifications- Communication protocol: Modbus RTU (RS485)
- Maximum axes supported (as slave units): 32 axes
- System type: Integrated servo system (drivers, encoders and required motor control devices included)
- Control topology: PLC or PC as master controller; CM3M units operate as slaves
- Wiring requirement: only power and communication cables required (reduces wiring complexity)
- Grouping: supports grouping function for simultaneous control of devices with identical configurations
- Key outcomes: driverless and compact setup, simplified installation, reduced cost and accelerated equipment deployment
