In high-speed and high-precision motion control area, the speed of data interaction plays an important role on production efficiency of production line. Specifically, when data interaction speed is increased, a large amount of sensors can be received and processed to watch running data, motion commands and feedback information, then, it can easily realize motion control, speed adjustment and trajectory planning with more precision to increase system respond time and stability.
Base on this theory, Zmotion developed one PCIe EtherCAT real-time motion control card with super-fast interaction velocity that is applied in high-speed and high-precision industrial control occasions. This EtherCAT motion control card is with multiple real-time function and ideal execution efficiency to ensure your industrial control system runs at the highest efficiency.
As we all know, there is one PCI EtherCAT motion control card XPCIE1032, so how XPCIE1032H is? Or what is difference between these two EtherCAT cards?
Also, XPCIE1032H is a kind of EtherCAT bus motion control card that is based on PCI Express, but it can select 6-64 axes motion control. Most of Zmotion motion control products support digital inputs and outputs, for this EtherCAT bus motion control card, it supports multiple high-speed digital inputs and outputs. Then, multi-axis synchronous control and high-speed data transmission can be easily realized.
As one EtherCAT bus motion control card, XPCIE1032H integrates powerful and rich motion control functions, and it is combined with MotionRT7 motion control real-time kernel to make solutions in automation high-speed and high-precision applications. In addition, the instruction interaction speed is faster 10 times than traditional PCI/PCIe, which means it can realize real-time very well, high-speed and high-precision requirements can be met in a great way in actual applications.
XPCIE1032H can be combined with MotionRT7 real-time kernel, below shows how the combination is.
It can be seen this kind of combination is extremely powerful, then let's see how powerful is.
fast and convenient development: develop through multiple kinds of upper computer languages, all motion control products and all Zmotion series products call the same one set of API function library.
fast interaction: interact inside the kernel to rapidly call motion commands, the respond time reaches us level, which is faster 10 times than traditional PCI/PCIe.
real-time motion control: it controls in real-time under Windows environment that can't be achieved through traditional PCI/PCIe motion control cards.
1D/2D/3D PSO: it supports high-speed hardware position comparison output function, then can be applied in vision fly-shooting, precise dispensing, laser energy control, etc.
position latch: there are high-speed input interfaces on it to latch positions easily.
hybrid interpolation: it is with EtherCAT bus and pulse output to interpolate mixedly.
Ok, now we have known the what we can get from the combination between motion control card XPCIE1032 and MotionRT7 real-time kernel.
Next, let's see XPCIE1032H EtherCAT motion control card for more details.
Firstly, it belongs to EtherCAT motion control card, but it also can select pulse axes, and there are 4 single-ended 500KHz pulse outputs. For 16 EtherCAT axes, synchronous period of 500us can be achieved, and it supports multi-card linkage.
As for its input and output interfaces, there are 16 general inputs and 16 general outputs, in some special situations, it can be 8 high-speed inputs and 16 high-speed outputs. Through EtherCAT bus expansion module, 512 isolated inputs or outputs can be expanded.
So many features, and powerful functions will be!
it supports PWM output, precision output, PSO hardware position comparison output, fly-shooting, etc.
it supports linear interpolation, circular interpolation, continuous trajectory processing (speed look-ahead).
it supports electronica cam, electronic gear, position latch, synchronous follow, virtual axis, pitch compensation, etc.
it supports more than 30 kinds of forward and reverse algorithms, for example, SCARA, Delta, UVM, 4-axis / 5-axis RTCP...
In real project development, please follow below steps to use XPCIE1032H and MotionRT7 together.
1. install driver program that should be signed for authorization to identify XPCIE1032 (non-signed version also is valid, please refer to "XPCIE1032 EtherCAT Motion Control Card User Manual V1.5" or contact us).
2. open and execute "MotionRT710.exe" file , configure parameters and run motion control real-time kernel.
3. use ZDevelop software to connect to controller for watching parameters. Please pay attention to use PCI/LOCAL method, and ensure ZDevelop must be above V3.10.
4. it is time to develop program , when completed programming, connect to controller through LOCAL, real-time motion control can be achieved.
When XPCIE1032 EtherCAT motion control card is combined with MotionRT7, it is faster 10 times than traditional PCI/PCIe card, this statement is not a empty talk, please see below test data:
It can be seen from the above test comparison results that instruction interaction efficiency is extremely stable when the XPCIE1032H Ethercat control card cooperates with the real-time motion control kernel MotionRT7 in the way of LOCAL link (in-core interaction). And when the number of tests increases from 1w to 10w, the interaction time of a single instruction and the interaction time of multiple instructions fluctuate little, obviously which is really suitable for high-speed and high-precision applications.
Now that XPCIE1032 ethercat card has rapid command interaction speed, and it is suitable for high-speed and high-precision applications, so what are them exactly?
Specifically, it can be applied in semiconductors, 3C electronics, optoelectronics, biomedical, new energy, and laser processing. More exact, such as die-bonding machines, placement machines, bonding machines, wafer scribing equipment, sorting machines, tape machines, lithium battery cutting and stacking all-in-one machine, mini LED dispensing, high-speed heterosexual plug-in, gene sequencing and other automation equipment fields.
