Pioneering Advanced Technology

Starting with the simplest applications that require the positioning of a workpiece to the more advanced handling during the interpolation of two axes, the products offered in the FX Positioning Family lineup will meet the requirements of most low-end applications.

Positioning Controllers with Independent Control

Pulse Output Blocks for High-Speed Positioning

Programmable Logic Controllers for Simple Positioning

FX3U + SSCNET III - The Cost Effective Solution for High Precision, High Speed Positioning

Plug-and-Play fiber optic cabling reduces setup time and increases control distance for positioning operations in a wide range of applications. Increased control is possible with real-time monitoring of servo amplifier parameters and with new positioning commands.

Features

  • High Speed Positioning with High Precision Control: With the high resolution encoder on the MR-J3 servo motor, pulses may be counted for rates up to 262,144 pulses/rev. Performance is enhanced for stable control in low speed regions where precision is a must.

  • 2 Axes for Advanced Operation Control: High precision control on 2 axes with synchronous capability via SSCNET III optical wiring is available.The operation speed and target position can change during positioning for more flexibility in positioning applications.

  • 3 Settings for Zero Return Method: Various modes are available for setting a workpiece’s mechanical zero return method including Dog type zero return, Data-type zero return, and Stopper type zero return.

  • Inching Operation: A pulse string of ±1 (user unit) is output when the forward/reverse rotation JOG activation time is less than the user defined JOG command determination time.

  • Torque Limit Change: The torque limit for stopping the servo motor when a workpiece hits a mechanical stopper can be changed with a sequence program. Depending on the mass of the device being controlled in a goods processing application, for example, the torque limit parameter can be adjusted accordingly.
