Hauppauge, N.Y.— SPC 200, a servopneumatic positioning system, is a 2-axis unit designed to simplify system configuration and programming. According to its developer, it was developed to provide extended flexibility with a minimum amount of effort and knowledge, and reduce the cost associated with implementing and commissioning the system. The controller can operate in a coordinated fashion with each instruction in a program controlling the position of both axes, or it can operate autonomously, with each axis having its own set of independent programs. www.festo-usa.com Festo Corp.
