Controllers, Controls and Software

BX-300 Motion and Machine Controller

Pre-integrated hardware and software platform for machine control

Machine builders need a cost effective way to improve machine throughput, maintainability and reliability to support the demands of future business.
Control system complexity and unreliable software development schedules, are problems demanding a different approach to machine design.

The BX-300™ controller provides the solution. Already written, pre-integrated, and time-tested control software that dramatically reduces the need for new code development.

  • Pre-integrated controls—reduce cost and time to market
  • Advanced software: Already written, integrated, proven
  • 6 internal drives and 8 axes of motion control
  • Internal E-stop and light curtain safety systems
  • 46 optically isolated I/O points
  • Ethernet: host and HMI connection; axes and I/O expansion
