Drive programming
Without external control
With the drive-based ‚Sequential Motion Control SMC‘ function, users can reduce the programming and commissioning effort by up to 90 % compared to classic PLC automation, according to the supplier Rexroth.
With ‚SMC‘, users program single- and multi-axis applications directly into the intelligent ‚Indradrive‘ drives without external control. The individual commands take over complete motion sequences and are arranged one after the other. They cover the majority of typical functions such as independent positioning axes, axis and master axis couplings, synchronous operation as well as cam disk applications and sequential movements. The range of applications extends from handling systems and test benches to flying cutting devices. Since Rexroth delivers the drives preconfigured, users are relieved of time-consuming routine tasks such as operating mode definition, diagnostics and error handling. The new function includes manual operation, a parameterization mode and automatic operation for program execution.
