ELAU PacDrive M Controllers
ELAU PacDrive M Controllers
The PacDrive controller can be rightly regarded as the intelligent brain of the system and is based on a rugged industrial PC. The PacDrive controller synchronises and coordinates the motion functions of the packaging machine. Using an IEC 61131-3 of PLC, the PacDrive Controller performs the functions previously reserved for classic PLCs. The individual PLC or positioning tasks can be broken down into several parallel tasks, which are implemented with the EPAS-4 programming environment per IEC 61131-3 standard.
The PacDrive Controller, is a microprocessor-based control hardware which works with the VxWorks real-time operating system, centrally implementing the PLC and motion functions. A PacDrive Controller synchronises, coordinates and creates the motion for scalable applications.
The PacDrive M controller range can control and synchronise the following number of axis.
- 2 drives for the PacDrive Controller C200 A2
- 8 drives for the PacDrive Controller C200
- 8 drives for the PacDrive Controller C400 A8
- 16 drives for the PacDrive Controller C400
- 99 drives for the PacDrive Controller C600
