Fond du Lac, Wis .—Machine and Motion Control (MMC) offers machine and motion control in a compact unit measuring 9 x 2.125 x 5.25 in. Users program the unit using PiCPro for Microsoft Windows-MMC Edition, which provides IEC 61131-3 standard function block programming for motion control, and ladder logic for machine control. Single-point programming for machine and motion control is said to simplify application and maintenance of MMC controlled machinery. A library of preengineered application programs for machine control addresses feed-to-length, flying cutoff, rotary knife, web control, tension control, filling, and winding. Motion control capabilities include positioning, indexing, gear ratioing, cam profiling, as well as linear and circular interpolation. Giddings & Lewis
