Wire Saving Conveyor Controller

For Brushless DC motor roller (For BLDC motor)

Feature Supports DeviceNet A MRC can control four motors at the same time, which enables · compact size · cost efficiency · high performance. A wide variety of functions in operation mode are available. It can be also controlled by PLC. (*1) It can reduce wiring cost Motor status can be monitored and motors can be controlled through the field network. Smooth speed control is available by a microcomputer. Rotating speed is set according to digital code. Output signals for brakes and servo lock control are available. A maximum of nine input and five output signals are available for users. (*2) *1: In the mode of 'User defined control by PLC' the DeviceNet communication has to be used. *2: These numbers of points are the number when the mode of 'User defined control by PLC( is chosen. RoHS compliant

Sample System Configuration

A Wide Variety of Functions in Operation Mode

Accumulation mode	1.Single control : When the downstream conveyor area is available to receive the package, it transfers it one by one. 2.High-speed control : The package is transferred after a certain period time when the downstream conveyor is moving. 3.Train control : When the downstream conveyor becomes empty, the packages as they come from the upstream area are transferred.
Y type merged transfer control	It controlles Y type merged conveyor lanes.
Right angle transfer control	It transfers the package at a right angle.
T type transfer control	This control is a combination of merge and transfer function.
User defined control by PLC	This function allows users to controll motor-rollers arbitrarily using PLC without functions built-in.
