Adlink Technology PCI-8254/PCI-8258 advanced motion controller
Adlink Technology has released the PCI-8254/PCI-8258 advanced motion controllers, that provide servo updates up to 20 kHz through a hardware-based PID-FF control loop and second-order filters, time-deterministic trajectory and velocity planning, comprehensive application functions, and powerful easy-to-use diagnostic and control utilities.
Hardware-based PID-FF closed-loop control, coupled with a powerful filter capability, overcomes the effects of generated noise and significantly eliminates mechanical resonance for high-speed and precision-enhanced point-to-point applications in the semiconductor industry. The program download function can execute up to eight individual tasks simultaneously, guaranteeing control performance in real time, and conserving CPU resources and costs. The device also provides multidimensional interpolation, as in 3D linear/circular/spiral interpolation, ideally suited for contouring applications in manufacturing industries, such as laser engraving/cutting, glue dispensing and others.
The device is also equipped with MotionCreatorPro 2, a Windows-based application development software package. More applicable time-domain and frequency-domain diagnostic tools are integrated into this utility for auto-tuning, frequency response analysis, as well as motion and I/O data sampling. A set-up wizard shortens the system installation and evaluation time, and allows monitoring of onboard DSP and I/O consumption via a system diagnostic page. Sampling pages and graphic tools deliver real-time motion and I/O status and conduct further motion flow analysis.
The controller supports Windows XP and Windows 7 (32-bit) operating systems. In addition, 32 additional onboard digital I/O channels (16 DI and 16 DO) can save the expense of a full DI/O card.
