Multi-axis controller SMC for stepper motorsERT

SMC improved the interpolation and speed regulation functions for its range of LE electric actuators by releasing the JXC92 series multi-axis controller. This multi-axis controller provides savings in programming and tooling because it allows to manage three actuators with a single device instead of using three controllers for the same function.

The device completes SMC’s JXC*3 series which simultaneously controls four axes and shares EtherNet/IP compatibility making them both valid solutions for industrial environments. The JXC92 offers high flexibility and allows to save precious space since it includes less cables, in addition to the fact that the controller is smaller if compared to three separate units. It is also possible to save time in the programming of the controller and to speed up cabling and connection of the various wires, by allowing to configure three axes at one go and in a single step.

SMC’s JXC92 thus provides a complete solution in an integrated product, with the possibility of creating a linear interpolation (3 axes) and a circular one (2 axes), and can be used in positioning and thrust applications, making it ideal for a vast range of industrial sectors.
