Description
The c430, for simple motion control in compact machines, has an Arm Cortex-A9 800 MHz, 4 GB Flash, 2 GB RAM, 512 kB of retained data and Ethernet 100 Mbit/s, and the fieldbus function switches between an Ethernet switch, PROFINET IO-Device and EtherCAT slave. The c520, for coordinated control of several highly dynamic axes, has an Intel Atom 1.6 GHz, 4 GB Flash, 2 GB RAM, 1024 kB of retained data and Ethernet 1000 Mbit/s. The c550, for top-class tasks such as printing machines with many sections or picking lines with several robots, has an Intel Core i7 2.8 GHz, 8 GB Flash, 4 GB RAM, 1024 kB of retained data and Ethernet 1000 Mbit/s. In the c520 and c550, EtherCAT slave and PROFINET IO-Device are optionally available. The design is battery-free, storage is allowed at −25…+60/70 °C, class 3K3 per EN 60721-3-3.
How to choose
For simple motion in a compact machine take the c430, for several highly dynamic axes the c520, for top-class tasks the c550. Over EtherCAT the controllers drive i750/i950 cabinet servo inverters and I/O system 1000 modules with an EtherCAT head module. They are programmed in PLC Designer and EASY Starter, and for web visualization the v430 and v450 panels are placed next to them.
