Motion Control I/O Modules

Advantech offers application ready platforms ranging from industrial workstations and industrial-grade CPUs to motion control, encoder input and isolated I/O cards for general motion control (GMC) applications which could be widely applied in SMT/PCB, semiconductor, LCD manufacturing industries, and more. Furthermore, Advantech provides a full-range of industrial computing platforms that include high-brightness LCD displays, keypads, (up to) 20-slot backplanes and redundant power supplies for machine builders. Advantech’s motion control cards have 3 and 4-axis inputs with pulse-type and voltage-pulse models. Finally, Advantech also provides a complete line of AMONet (Advantech Motion Network) distributed motion modules. All of the cards are supported by complete motion control libraries under DOS and Windows OS.
Distributed Motion Control Solutions
Distributed Motion Control Solutions
The first series of distributed motion control products from Advantech is called the AMONet RS-485 series which are categorized in two groups - Master Cards and Slave Modules. While the Master Card is kept in the host PC, the Slave Modules can be distributed so that they are next to motor drivers on the factory floor. Another advantage of AMONet RS-485 is its compatibility with motor drivers from different vendors such as Panasonic, Mitsubishi and Yaskawa. Thus, the AMONet is engineered to tackle the problems of increasing spending on wiring and maintenance of these complex motion control systems, and also make configuration much easier.
