Product Description

The IMC-S/23x is a compact, rugged, microprocessor-based two- or

four-axis servo motion controller. By including the logic and field

power supplies, the IMC-S/23x provides a completely programmable,

stand-alone motion and logic controller suitable for a wide variety of

industrial applications.

The IMC-S/23x, in conjunction with external drive systems and

feed-back encoders, provides two or four axes of closed-loop

point-to-point positioning with profile (trapezoidal, parabolic, or

S-curve), velocity, acceleration, and deceleration control as well as

multi-axis linear, circular, or helical interpolation. The electronic

gearing feature allows any axis to be slaved to another at a program

mable ratio. The electronic cam feature allows coordinated motion

profiles which are functions of time or position of another axis.

Sophisticated phase shift, auto-registration, and auto-correction capa

bilities allow many complex motions and synchronizations to be eas

ily programmed. General-purpose discrete I/O, analog inputs, analog

outputs, etc. are provided by direct connection of Allen-Bradley

Flex™ I/O modules. Up to eight Flex I/O modules—providing a total

of 128 discrete I/O points—may be connected directly to the

IMC-S/23x. Analog inputs and outputs can be substituted for discrete

I/O blocks for increased I/O flexibility.
