The PCE-M118 is an advanced Motion Control Card. The 8-axis motion control provides 2 to 4 axes linear interpolation, 2-axis circular interpolation and also continuous interpolation with velocity continuity. It provides 13 homing modes for different machine designs. It also provides position compare and trigger output functions to apply to other applications, like on-the-fly image acquisition. The position latch and interrupt functions let users widely utilize with other applications like machine tool length measurement. The PCE-M118 provides servo drive/motor dedicated digital I/O interfaces, for example, ALM, INP, and ERC and also machine dedicated digital I/O interfaces, for example, ORG, PEL, and EMG. These dedicated I/O signals guarantee the functionality via hardware and therefore reduces the loading of software.
