The PCMM™ programmable motion controller delivers a small yet powerful and cost-effective hardware platform ideally suited for modular or stand-alone machines that want the maximum in flexibility and performance.

The Motion controller is programmed using Kollmorgen Automation Suite’s (KAS) Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and is plug-and-play compatible with Kollmorgen’s broad range of motion control solutions.

Motion and programming capabilities:

  • IEC 61131-3 programmable automation and motion controller
  • EtherCAT master for high-performance motion and device synchronization.
  • PipeNetwork™ motion engine for visual programming
  • Embedded RTOS for guaranteed performance and stability
  • Integrated webserver for remote diagnostics and status checking
  • Ideal design for modular machines and flexible manufacturing systems
  • Network communication via OPC, MODBUS, TCP/IP, UDP, and common fieldbus for fast integration into your machine or factory
  • Intuitive EtherCAT configuration tools built into KAS IDE simplifies network configuration
  • Integrated Kollmorgen Workbench® for rapid servo tuning and machine optimization

Hardware features:

  • Up to 1.2GHz CPU meets the performance requirements for a broad range of machines
  • Up to 32 axes of synchronized path control and 128 axes of coordinated motion
  • 100BaseT connection supporting TCP/IP, MODBUS, EthernetIP®, Profinet® to host PLC, computer, or network to easily interface with most manufacturing systems
  • Cycle times as low as 250 μs
  • Alphanumeric display for fast diagnostics and system troubleshooting
  • Removable SD memory card for simple backup/restore and file storage
  • On-board digital I/O with support for expansion I/O via EtherCAT
