SMLC-e EtherCAT Motion Controllers

Servo Motion & Logic Controller with EtherCAT (SMLC-e) is an all-in-one Motion and Logic Controller, combining full IEC 61131-3 programming tools with powerful motion control software. Offered in 4 models, the SMLC-e series provides an integrated motion and logic control leveraging industry-standard hardware and software solutions.

Using the common “look and feel” of the CODESYS 3.5 environment enables highly efficient application programming of complex motion and PLC machine control tasks, while also reducing software development and support costs. This includes Sequential Function Chart (SFC); Ladder Diagram (LD); Function Block Diagram (FBD); Instruction List (IL), and Structured Text (ST).

With its compact wall-mount design, easy-to-use diagnostic LEDs, and the use of the highly reliable QNX Neutrino real time operating system (RTOS), the SMLC-e is a future-proof motion control solution that supports both high-speed control and easy lifecycle management. The SMLC-e is perfect for small and large projects, with the availability to up to 16 highly coordinated motor axes and 24 virtual axes and WAGO I/O integrations.

The SMLC-e Motion Controllers performance is summarized below.
