This is a dedicated motion controller for the PLC (Yokogawa Electric FA-M3). It allows for easy use of NC control and robot control from the PLC. It is in a class of its own compared to general positioning module control. Despite being a PLC module, it integrates and operates independently with functions for multi-axis interpolation, synchronous control, contour control, and electronic cam, enabling control of processing machines, multi-axis robots, winding machines, and more without the burden of ladder logic. The PLMC offers a variety of convenient motion functions that can accommodate all types of automation equipment, helping to realize the know-how of machine and equipment manufacturers and promoting differentiation in automated systems. Additionally, with the use of multi-tasking capabilities, a single PLMC can easily control various stations such as transport, processing, assembly, and inspection in a line control setup.

The "PLMC" is a motion controller designed for PLC users, allowing easy access to motion functions from PLCs. It can easily control not only simple positioning but also assembly, processing, robotics, and complex machines. Additionally, since this product is an independent motion controller, it allows for the use of motion functions freely from the ladder or without relying on the ladder. 【Features】 ■ Supports multi-axis and multi-series ■ Precise control is possible with rich motion functions even without a ladder program ■ Compatible with general-purpose ladders, making expansion with I/O, networks, etc., easy ■ Collaboration between PC/PLC and PLMC ■ Wide range of options and adaptability for horizontal deployment of technology *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

「モーションコントローラ」を直訳すると、「動きを制御するもの」 となります。具体的には、サーボ駆動による様々な産業装置を制御する コントローラのことです。位置決めコントローラとの違いはモーション 制御ができるかの違いです。 装置メーカ様は通常、お持ちのノウハウと知恵を活かしてより高い生産性を 追求し、それを備えた「売れるマシン」を作るため、日々時間を費やされて いると思います。 しかし、CPUやソフト技術は、時代の流れとともに著しく進歩していくもの。 装置メーカ様がすべてのソフトを自社開発されるのは、かなりの負担と なることでしょう。 ※記事の詳細内容は、関連リンクより閲覧いただけます。 　詳しくは、お気軽にお問い合わせください。

We would like to introduce a case where the introduction of our PLC motion controller "PLMC-M II EX" has achieved high productivity with an in-house dedicated machine. Previously, we were producing with a general-purpose polishing machine, but we felt limited in improving productivity. To develop more advanced in-house production technology, we needed a flexible NC that could incorporate our internal know-how. Additionally, networking for production management was also important. By implementing this product, we were able to achieve sufficient processing accuracy, confidentiality that cannot be imitated by other companies, cost advantages, costs similar to general-purpose PLCs, and integration with production management systems. [Challenges] - Precision as a machine tool and precision processing - Productivity exceeding that of general-purpose machines (tact and quality) - Flexibility and confidentiality to incorporate know-how - Cost advantages - Integration with production management - Utilization of our accumulated software technology *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where our PLC motion controller "PLMC-M II EX/M3EX" was used to control this machine and the robot collectively. Traditionally, our customer purchased completed robots from various robot manufacturers and combined them for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. However, they faced issues such as "high costs" and "lack of flexibility," and were looking for a motion controller manufacturer to take charge of robot control while in-house manufacturing the robot mechanisms. Tekno introduced a mechanism suited to the robot structure into our product. This made it easy to achieve advanced motion control such as force control, complete synchronization control, and robot mechanism calculations. [Challenges and Requests] ■ They wanted the mechanism of the in-house manufactured robot to be integrated into the motion controller (control software). ■ They wanted to operate the robot, assembly, and bonding devices in close collaboration/synchronization. ■ Advanced motion control was also necessary, including control of film tension, force, and compensation control for changes in film roll inertia. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of a winding machine using the PLC motion controller "PLMC-M3EX." One of the qualities required for a winding machine is the ability to perform accurate winding. Our motion controller, which is derived from NC technology, can control the composite speed of each axis without deviation, even when there are continuous minute linear interpolations. With this product, we can control each process and achieve winding with fine pitch. The use of Techno Code allows for easy programming of operation, and it has become easier to integrate with Yokogawa Electric's ladder logic, providing several advantages. 【Advantages】 ■ Achieves winding with fine pitch ■ Easy programming of operation using Techno Code ■ Easy integration with Yokogawa Electric's ladder logic ■ Controls all processes with a single unit *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where a single device achieved multiple applications such as electrical discharge machining, cutting, and grinding. A certain equipment manufacturer aimed to develop a device that could be used for multiple applications to enhance its competitive edge over other companies. To achieve this, they developed the necessary functions for multiple applications within the motion controller, allowing the device to be used for various purposes simply by changing the head. 【Case Overview】 ■Challenges - To realize the control functions necessary for various applications such as electrical discharge machining (drilling, micro-drilling, die sinking), cutting (milling, drilling), and grinding. ■Solution - Developed the necessary functions for multiple applications within the motion controller (customization). *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a control case of the XYZAC (table rotation) type 5-axis machining machine. The customer requested the implementation of the TCP function on the motion controller side. By fully utilizing existing functions such as tool length compensation and tool diameter compensation, we achieved machining accuracy equivalent to that of major NC manufacturers. 【Case Overview】 ■ Solutions - Realization of TCP function - Full utilization of existing functions such as tool length compensation and tool diameter compensation ■ Benefits - Achieved machining accuracy equivalent to that of major NC manufacturers *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
