‘Sercos’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Trio adds interface to motion coordinator range from
Trio Motion Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Trio Motion Technology has added a Sercos II digital drive interface to its MC464 Motion Coordinator range. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Seminar covers Sercos developments from
Sercos North America: "Free one-day seminars on the latest advances for the Sercos interface for motion, safety and I/O have been scheduled for 14 September in the Minneapolis area and on 16 September in Atlanta. ".
In June 2009, we covered the news from Trio Motion Technology
- take a look at Trio unveils multi-axis motion/machine controller
which says: "Trio has announced the MC464 multi-axis motion and machine controller.".
Take a look also at the news release from Motor Technology, Motor Technology introduces ARS 2108 drives,
as well as JVL introduces MAC400 motor from JVL Industri Elektronik,
and Trio motion controller used in camera system from Trio Motion Technology.
