Performance Benefits
Cleveland Motion Controls specializes in the design and application of high performance motion controllers. Aximate/C is the ideal controller for high performance servo motion control and is designed to meet the requirements of machine builders in packaging, materials handling and general automation.

A single compact box functions as a complete machine controller; providing motion control, opto-isolated input/output, and a user friendly message display by way of the external operator panel. The panel mount design allows easy integration into systems, saving time over rack mount controllers.

Design Features
The Aximate/C Motion Controller, with opto-isolated I/O and power supply, is designed to provide one, two or three-axis of servo motion control. It incorporates numerous other built-in design features:
  • End mounted unit with screw terminations for ease of commissioning.
  • High performance closed-loop servo or vector control with four-term PIVF controller.
  • 64K or 128K credit card memory interface for program storage, motion profiles or teach data.
  • LCD display and keypad driver for up to 64 keys in 8x8 matrix using CANbus interface.
  • 18VAC input or 24VDC, on board power supply providing isolated 24V output for machine I/O and 5V stabilized output for incremental encoders.
  • Stand-alone operation or controlled by host computer over RS232/485 link, up to 16 units on RS485 multi-drop link.
Program Development Tools
Aximate/C is supplied with comprehensive program development software for IBM PCs. This includes cTerm, a terminal emulator and protected communications debugger.
  Motion Programming Language
  • Structured Basic-style motion control language.
  • Three axis linear and two axis circulator interpolation.
  • Trapezoidal or 'S' ramp velocity profiles.
  • Master/slave operation with software gearbox and software cams.
  • In-feed, registration and phasing machine control.
  • Protected multi-drop communications using ANSI x3.28 data communications protocol.
  • 28K bytes non-volatile memory for programs & data.
  • On board program editor.
