The Trio MC464 provides interface options for traditional servo, stepper and piezo control together with many digital interfaces for current digital servo drives. Equipment flexibility is increased with support for up to 64 axes of motion control.
The MC464 supports programs written in TrioBASIC, allowing a smooth upgrade path from earlier series of Motion Coordinator. G-Code, HPGL and the standard IEC 61131 languages are supported; with full operation of the IEC 61131 language requiring a software license.
I/O expansion is provided via a built-in CAN Bus interface. Further fieldbus networks supporting common factory protocols are supported via the HMS Anybus(r) adapter module.
Every axis can be programmed to move using linear, circular or helical interpolation, electronic cams and gearboxes. Features include support for merging multiple moves that are typically generated by CAD/CAM software and support is provided for continuously rotating machinery.
The axis expansion modules feature many options for Drive Network interfaces, analogue servo, pulse/direction, absolute or incremental feedback and accurate hardware registration.
For technical support, Trio have a comprehensive website that includes a forum where Trio's Technicians can support users directly. Coupled with Motion Technologies technical support, Trio can offer support 24hrs a day, 7 days a week for Trio Motion control products during commissioning and routine shut downs.
