A motion PLC combines sequence logic with axis control functions such as homing, positioning, synchronization, interpolation and electronic cam.
Motion PLC is relevant when selecting, integrating, replacing or troubleshooting industrial automation equipment. The exact engineering requirement depends on the controller, machine process, interfaces, safety requirements and maintenance strategy.
This definition is intended as a technical reference. Product compatibility, safety performance and final selection must be confirmed against the latest manufacturer documentation and the actual machine conditions.
