The M3000 System is Moog's high-performance digital motion control system for hydraulic and electric drive products.
The M3000 System is Moog's high-performance digital motion control system for hydraulic and electric drive products.
The M3000 is built to enable users to easily implement fast and accurate control structures.
A powerful control system enables complex multi-axis functions with axis cycle times of 1ms or even faster closed-loop control with servo valves or servomotors.
A variety of extension modules are available for the MSC (Moog Servo Controller) as part of the M3000 System.
Each is mounted on a DIN rail for easy add-ons and a high degree of flexibility.
The core of the M3000 system is the Moog Servo Controller (MSC), a freely programmable multi-axis controller that enables simultaneous advanced control algorithms and PLC sequencing in a single application.
Key features include: advanced digital motion control for closed-loop control (eg position, speed, force) of hydraulic and electric products; use of accepted standards and protocols insures fast implementation and easy set-up to save users time and money; 32bit RISC processor with floating point unit for powerful, fast and accurate control; and multiple software configurable interfaces - SSI, encoder, CANopen, RS232, Ethernet, Profibus, analogue/digital outputs and various serial interfaces.
The Moog Axis Control Software (MACS) is an IEC61131-3 development environment for the MSC and hardware configuration for all M3000 modules.
It is an all-in-one software with programming, debugging, simulation, parameterisation, visualisation and tracing capabilities.
MACS uses universal protocols and offers all textual and graphical programming languages which are defined by IEC61131-3 (function block diagram, instruction list, sequential function chart, structured text, ladder diagram, continuous function chart).
Moog also specialises in developing easy-to-use, customised control algorithm function blocks for MACS.
