Product Description
CODESYS SoftMotion enables the control of single-axis and synchronized multi-axis movements (electronic cams, electronic gears).
CODESYS SoftMotion CNC+Robotics enables the control of CNC machines and industrial robots.
CODESYS SoftMotion Light allows to command CiA 402 compatible drives for single axis movements (not synchronized).
Functional principle:
Project engineering of motion using function library modules
Configuration of drives with fieldbus support integrated in the CODESYS Development System
Parameterization of axis groups for predefined kinematics in a separate object
Decoupling of application creation from the applied hardware by abstracting the drives with drive group names in the device tree
Motion planning with cam editor
- Integrated motion planning:
with 3D CNC editor according to DIN 66025 (G code) and tabular editor
with coordinate values for robot positions in different coordinate systems
Processing of CNC motion, robotic motion, or other motion tasks in the runtime system on the controller with the IEC 61131-3 logic application
Online editing of CNC programs in CODESYS Visualization
Typical applications of CODESYS SoftMotion:
As an additional option for powerful, CODESYS compatible control systems with good real-time behavior (FPU recommended)
Actuation of single-axis and multi-axis movements, for example with position and velocity definitions, drive functions, or phase actuation
Implementation of electronic cams
CNC motion with modifications by the end user (for example, in metal and woodworking machines)
Robotic systems including SCARA, tripod, and palletizing robots such as in assembly and loading automation
A note on SoftMotion Light: In contrast to SoftMotion and SoftMotion CNC+Robotics, the calculation of the axis movements is not done within the controller. With SoftMotion Light movements of the drive are just commanded and supervised (status) by the PLC and executed by the drive. The trajectory calculation is done in the drive.
SoftMotion Light is suitable for applications with multiple axes for single axes movements and for controller tasks requiring a low bus and computing load (CPU).
