White Paper: PLCs and Robots: The Quest for a Single Controller

WP.MTN.08

395KB

 Less

Rev Date:

05/25/2016

Description:

As automation applications continue to grow, two distinct areas are starting to merge into common deployments: robotics and motion. Robotics has traditionally been a path-dependent event-based application. In contrast, motion control has more typically been a scan-based velocity or positioning application, with the exception of machine tools. This white paper analyzes the two architectures and presents some possibilities for combined solutions.
