Ruggedized design built to reliably operate in the most extreme environments

HIGH PERFORMANCE MOTOR CONTROLLERS

IN A COMPACT PACKAGE

Moog is a leader in motion control technology and has provided innovative

products and solutions for a wide range of industries for more than 65 years,

including 35 years serving the oil & gas industry. We meet our customers‘ needs

through ruggedized products and by delivering fast, responsive global support.

The Moog Downhole Motor Controllers are designed for high performance,

high temperature environments such as downhole drilling which demand

exceptionally narrow package diameters. The single axis controller is a closed

loop control solution for velocity and position control that complements our

Downhole Brushless Servo Motors and Servo Actuators. A low current draw in

standby mode maximizes operating time in battery powered applications.

For a complete solution, the software and graphical user interface (GUI) are

engineered to expedite the design and test of your product while providing the

flexibility to support your application specific requirements. Diagnostic data,

accessible via the RS485 serial interface, enables health/life monitoring based

on time and temperature in operation.

ADVANTAGES

motion control solution

• User friendly GUI tools:

– Data Logging & Oscilloscope up to 4 channels

– Editable Parameter Database

– Status and Fault Indication

Overview

MC 600 Plus is the new MC 600 CPU Series based on a

quadcore SOC technology.

Each MC 600 Series application needs exactly one main

CPU module. It is not possible to use more than one main

CPU module in an application.

The main CPU module controls all other modules of the

application. The two main CPU modules have the same

functionality, including battery backup, wake-up function

and a license key connector for advanced algorithms.

The main CPU 6033 module comes with an additional

EtherCAT device connectivity.

The main CPU 6034 module comes with an additional

ProfiNET device connectivity.

Power Supply

Each of these modules has its own internal power supply

unit (PSU) that requires a nominal +24 VDC

input to produce

the logic voltages necessary for the other modules.

The external +24 VDC

power supply for the modules must

be combined with either a CPU module or a bus transceiver

module.

All modules monitor voltage, current, and temperature

or any other data from the power supply. The main CPU

modules have a wake-up function to start-up the power

supply. The power available from the modules limits the

number of modules to be used in an application.

Additional Information

For decentralized applications, additionally bus

transceiver modules are available, see section ““Bus

Transceiver Modules”.

I/O and temperature modules are connected to each of the

CPU modules via local bus, see sections ““I/O Modules” and

“Temperature Modules”.

For possible combinations of modules and application

samples, see section “Concepts”.

In the new Moog Machine Controller (MC Series 600), Moog experts haveincorporated over

30 years experience in leading-edge technology into a flexibleand modular solution for high

performance industrial machinery. The hardware iscomplemented by the Moog Application

Software Suite, a powerful yet easy-to-use tool for developing application programs based

on CoDeSys, the proven IEC61131-3 compliant programming system.

The MC Series 600 product family includes CPU, 1/0 and communicationsmodules, as well as

local and PC-based HMI units. The multitasking Linux-basedreal-time operating system

guarantees fast reaction and reduced cycle times,providing efficiency and productivity

enhancements. Analog 16 bit I/0 resolutionoffers greater precision positioning and higher

accuracy.

Designed specifically to combine flexibility with ease of use, MC Series 600controllers are

simple to configure and modular in design. While the MC Series600 is suitable for a wide

variety of industrial applications, software templatesfor blow and injection molding and the

incorporation of integral functions suchas temperature and parison profile control, make it

an ideal choice for plasticsmolding applications.
