MOTION CONTROL MODULES
COMPONENT OVERVIEW:
The PowerMax3000
TM
Slicer Computer sends
operational information to the 3 Motion Control
Modules over the Profibus Network.
(Illustration 26) The Motion Control Modules
are manufactured by Siemens. The Motion
Control Modules send control signals over an
Ethernet Network to the Servo Drives to
control all of the Servo Motors. (Illustration 27)
Each Motion Controller has its own Computer
and Software Chip. The U1 Motion Controller
is the main Computer that controls all of the
Servo Motors on the Slicer. The U2 and U9
Modules are secondary Computers.
U1 MOTION CONTROL MODULE:
The U1 Motion Controller sends command
signals and operational information to the U2
and U9 Motion Control Modules. The U2 and
U9 Modules use this information to send
command and control information to the Servo
Drives under their control. The U1 Motion
Controller also sends command and control
information to the Servo Drives that are
directly under its control. Each Motion Control
Module is run by a Computer and each
Module has a programmed Compact Flash
Chip. The U1 Module is the “Main” Computer.
U2 and U9 are “Secondary” Computers.
