Jun 27, 2002
Laser Lines (Industrial and Medical) has added a standard CNC control system to its Nutec range of high precision motion systems.
Laser Lines (Industrial and Medical) has added a standard CNC control system to its Nutec range of high precision motion systems.
The CNC controller permits traditional M-Code and G-Code programming per RS274 and offers the capability to extend the systems functionality by customising the operator interface and adding application specific control subroutines.
The controller is built on a proven Windows 2000 platform, ensuring the CNC controller can exchange data with Windows applications.
Capabilities include 2 and 3D contouring, programming in well known G-code CNC programming language for up to eight axes co-ordinated motion at high speed, digital I/Os for machine interfacing, real time process control and monitoring via PLC programming, multiple user definable co-ordinate systems, user definable M code and G code functions, all the capabilities of the world renowned Delta-Tau PMAC controller.
The CNC control system can be integrated by Nutec with any of their standard or custom-designed motion platforms including x-y tables, high-speed gantries, x-y-z-theta, and multi-axis systems.
The system architectures is configured to meet the specific application requirements, and our modular approach is suited to either single systems, or multiple in-house an OEM machine systems.
Typical applications include laser machining, micromachining, robotics, custom CNC systems, pick-and-place systems with variable tasks, dispensing equipment, metrology and inspection machines, and adaptive machining/fabricating.
