SMC100 Series

The SMC100 Series Ultra-compact SANMOTION C motion controllers featuring high-speed EtherCAT fieldbus are available in a high-performance type for controlling robots and a standard type that specializes in PTP (Point-to-Point) positioning. They are suitable for motion control applications such as robots, conveying machines, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.

• Equipped with the industry-trusted high-speed fi eldbus EtherCAT interface
• Available in two confi gurations: a high-performance type (Model no. SMC100-A) for controlling robots and a standard type (Model no. SMC100-B)
• Ideal for applications such as assembly equipment and conveying machines

When starting a motion controller project, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine the optimum motion controller for the job. They perform all necessary engineering calculations to make sure the motion controller performs as required, within customer specification, and without unnecessary cost.

This includes:

• Ensuring compatibility with the motor drive and available power
• Specifying the appropriate feedback device, encoder (incremental vs. absolute), resolver, etc.
• Verifying mounting compatibility, form factor checks, etc.
• Ensuring all necessary accessories are also specified

When ordering a SMC100 motion controller as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and accessories necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
