Abstract

The concept and sorts of motion controller were introduced in this paper, the features of PMAC motion controller was explained, and the make-up of the numerical control system based on MINI-PMAC, PC and AC servo driver was discussed in detail including hardware structure and software designing. Then a development example of experiment was shown. Servo compute and control in the CNC system are both performed by PMAC, while PC and other general interfaces act as terminals; this structure offers more flexibility and can be used in a wide range of applications.
