ZMC420SCAN Motion Controller 

    

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter One Controller Introduction 

 

ZMC is the abbreviation of the network motion controller model introduced 
by the positive motion technology. 
ZMC420SCAN bus controller supports ECAT / RTEX bus connection, 

supports up to 20 axis motion control, supports linear interpolation, 
arbitrary arc interpolation, space arc, spiral interpolation, 
electronic cam, electronic gear, synchronous follow, virtual axis 
settings Etc .; using optimized network communication protocol can 
realize real-time motion control. 

ZMC420SCAN bus controller supports mixed interpolation 
of pulse axis / bus axis / galvanometer axis. A single 
computer supports up to 256 ZMC controllers 
simultaneously linked.
