Controllers (Page 2)

The Acroloop Controllers are 32/64 bit floating point Multi-tasking DSP
based motion controllers. The ACR2000 and ACR1500 are used in
applications requiring up to 4 axes of motion control per board and the
ACR8020, ACR8010 and, ACR8000 are used in applications requiring
up to 8 Axes. The ACR8020 can be expanded further to control 16 axes if
required! For low cost 1 or 2 axes standalone applications, the ACR1200
is the ideal solution.

The controllers can perform independent of co-ordinated axis moves
including linear, sinusoidal, elliptical, helical, spherical, NURBS and
b-spline interpolation in any combination of axes. In addition the user can
define up to 8 (16 for the ACR8020) co-ordinate systems for programs
(8 motion, 8 non motion and 8 PLC program).

In PC-based applications, the Acroloop motion controllers have the ability
to perform the bulk of the calculations for motion control and command the
I/O ports, while updating the graphical operator display is left for the PC
CPU. This is especially important for Windows based applications where the
engineer must insure that the motion and PLC operations are executed in
real time.
