Beckhoff | TwinCAT – The universal solution for PLC and Motion
High-end PLC
– international IEC 61131-3
programming standard
– reusable software modules can
be used
– almost unlimited memory
– no restrictions in terms of
number of blocks and variables
– minimum PLC cycle times
through native code generation
– 1,000 instructions in < 1 µs
(Intel ® Core2 Duo)
– high-speed software solutions
for camming, controllers, etc.
Motion Control functionality
– point-to-point motion
– gear coupling
– master/slave coupling
– cam plate (cam design editor)
– laws of motion defi ned from
the PLC
– online changeability of
cam plates
– superposition of several
cam plates
– synchronous position coupling
(fl ying saw)
– synchronisation from any
dynamic phase
– superposition
– printing mark recognition
(touch probe)
– phasing
– multi-master coupling
– axis interpolation in 3 dimensions
– programming according to
DIN 66025
– PLC library for NC interpolation
