Motion CPU

Mitsubishi Electric Motion controller realizes high-speed control of up to 32 axes (96 axes per Q series system) directly

from the motion CPUs with no intermediate motion control modules. This offers large cost savings, especially when

complex wiring is eliminated due to the “daisy-chain” connection of Mitsubishi intelligent digital servos. (Refer to the “Motion

Controller Catalog” for more information on the Motion CPU.)

0.88ms motion operation cycle time assures high performance operation, even with high-speed cam profile emulation.

¡Together with the shortened communication cycle time (0.88ms), the synchronization performance and

speed/positioning control accuracy is substantially improved.

¡Motion CPU can be used together with any type of Q series CPU as required.

¡Via Mitsubishi's high performance SSCNET motion network technology, Q series offers significant engineering and

operation benefits for motion control.

* SSCNET is a high-speed serial communication network that connects the motion CPU and servo amplifier.

¡Industrial specification level environmental and noise performance specifications.

¡Choose HDD or silicon disk mass storage depending on the operating environment.

¡Utilize third party PC applications available for Microsoft™ Windows™, offering a virtually

unlimited application scope.

¡Includes a wide variety of ports and connections to add third party hardware devices.

Note) The PC CPU is manufactured by CONTEC, Co., Ltd. Refer to the “Partner Products” on pages 35 and 36 for more information.

Motion Control

PC CPU

Q series is unique in being able to mount a full-featured Windows™ PC in a robust industrial

format directly on the Q series base unit. This offers the potential to combine it with other Q

series CPU types, therefore fully integrating it into the Q I/O system to give complete access

to all I/O modules and networking, allowing maximum design flexibility.
