EMERSON IC693APU301 9030 MOTION CTRL MDL1-AXIS APM

The Motion Mate APM is an easy-to-use intelligent, fully programmable one-axis or two-axis motion control module for the Series 90-30 PLC. The APM allows a PLC user to combine high-performance control with PLC logic solving functions in one integrated system. The APM can be configured to operate in either Standard mode or Follower mode. When used in Standard mode, it combines high-performance motion control with PLC logic solving functions in one integrated system. When used in Follower mode, it provides high-performance electronic gearing for continuous master/slave applications. The desired mode is easily selected by configuring a setup parameter in the configuration software. The Series 90-30 and APM operate together as one integrated motion control package. The APM controls axis motion and handles all direct communications to the drive and machine while the PLC automatically transfers data between PLC tables and the APM. The PLC also provides a means for connecting operator interfaces, which can control and monitor system operation.
