MOTOR C ONTROLLER (MOCON) - BRUSHLESS
The brushless machining centers are equipped with a microprocessor based brushless motor controller board
(MOCON) that replaces the motor interface in the brush type controls. It runs in parallel with the main proces-
sor, receiving servo commands and closing the servo loop around the servo motors.
In addition to controlling the servos and detecting servo faults, the motor controller board, (MOCON), is also in
charge of processing discrete inputs, driving the I/O board relays, commanding the spindle and processing the
jog handle input. Another significant feature is that it controls 6 axes, so there is no need for an additional
board for a 5 axis machine.
