For years, the proven solution for motion control applications has been the open realtime-capable interface of sercos.
You can rely on the sercos automation bus. Since the early 1990s, it has developed into an internationally-accepted realtime communication standard for demanding and precise applications. The third generation of the sercos series – sercos III – is based on standard Ethernet.
With sercos III, you can achieve maximum realtime precision. Benefit from the advantages of this system:
With a sercos III master, the jitter is only ±10 ns. The precision of the synchronization is under 20 ns. A simultaneity of under 100 ns is achieved.
The Axioline IO system offers I/O components for sercos for installation in the control cabinet and the field.
For control cabinet installation
Thanks to an update time of 1 µs per I/O module, Axioline F series is able to fully exploit the potential of sercos, making it the ideal system for especially fast and synchronous applications.
The extensive portfolio of the block-modular IO system offers great flexibility. Using it together with the high- performance sercos bus coupler, you can build your sercos station according to your needs.
For field installation
The Axioline E series devices feature rapid installation, rugged housing, and particularly simple handling.
In addition to standard digital functions, IO-Link communication also provides maximum flexibility here.
Two housing types are available (metal and plastic) depending on your requirements.
Connect all devices using standard CAT5e cables from Phoenix Contact, which are suitable for industrial applications. Installation is very easy: following a short initialization phase, the network is synchronized and ready for use.
New devices can be easily coupled in during operation. They are automatically integrated into communication and realtime data exchange (hot plug-in).
