The concept of a PLC and motion control in a drive format is not new, however the Parker Compax3 now takes this to the next level.
The CoDeSys programmed Compax3 features a full PLC Open motion library, supporting every conceivable motion format up to electronic CAMs and programmes extending to 5,000 instructions. In addition, using the CAN Open communications options it is now possible to add up to 64 I/O and Siemens Inverters, which use the new CAN Open interface.
