Optimized Controller Available in Space-Saving Package
Aerotech’s Automation 3200 multi-axis machine controller is available with a compact panel-mount or rack-mount (1U or 4U) computer designed for industrial environments.
The A3200 is software based (no PC slots required) and combines a high-performance motion engine with vision, PLC, robotics and I/O in a unified programming environment. The controller utilizes distributed control architecture and the industry standard FireWire(r) network to provide 1 to 32 axes of synchronized control without degrading performance as the axis count increases, the company says.
