TRIO MOTION TECHNOLOGY - Absolute Positioning Made Easy!
Trio introduces popular absolute encoder capability on its Motion Coordinators™. As a technology leader in motion controls, Trio now offers Heidenhain’s EnDAT and Tamagawa absolute encoder interfaces on the PCI-208 and 3U Euro205X Motion Coordinators™. The PCI-208 can accommodate up to 8 axes of standard or absolute encoders in any mix on the same hardware. The Euro205X can handle up to 4 axes. “These new interfaces compliment our existing SSI and incremental encoder options giving our customers the flexibility they need to solve more applications.” Says Ed Novak, North American Sales Manager.
Compact stand-alone and PC board level designs utilize a unique flexible Daughter Board and Feature Enable Code system to mix and match controller functionality. Command options include stepper; servo, SERCOS, and CAN drive command generation. All multi-tasking controllers program using the easy Trio Basic language and have powerful cams, gearing, linear, circular, and helical interpolation functionality. Communication options include DeviceNET, ProfiBUS, ModBus, RS232/485 ASCII, ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus/TCP, and fiber optic ASCII. The standard high-speed CAN interface easily expands system I/O, or be a direct interface to CAN drives and other CAN slave devices.
Since 1987, Trio Motion Technology has provided industry with innovative, high-performance servo and stepper motion controls from 1 to 24 axes of coordination. Trio remains true and focused as a control technology company to meet the demands of the motion control market.
