Micro PLC’s positioning module gets even more features

News

Mitsubishi Electric has further advanced its ability to provide dedicated networked positioning via its micro-sized range of PLCs (programmable logic controllers), with an upgrade to its 20SSC-H motion module for the FX3U.

The original 20SSC-H module, launched on 2007 was an instant success because it gave small systems the benefits previously the exclusive domain of very sophisticated systems. Connection to the MR-J3-B (SSCNET III) range of servo amplifiers was possible using cost effective fibre-optic cable. Suddenly t high level power and precision was available for even the most modest application. Customers also benefited from standard features of the servo amplifiers such as real-time autotuning, adaptive filters and machine analysis functions.

Now an upgrade (version 1.20) to the FX3U-20SSC-H module has been launched with enhanced features. This will allow even more users to adopt advanced servo systems designs and add new capabilities to existing installations.

The new version contains 13 new internal buffer memory locations, all of which can be utilised via a standard PLC program.
