MotionWorks IEC

Overview

Through the use of Yaskawa's IEC61131-3 programming environment, MotionWorks IEC Express and MotionWorks IEC Pro enable programmers to take advantage of several standard programming languages within a single development package.

These languages work predictably and seamlessly with one another: Ladder Logic (perfect for digital sensory data representation), Structured Text (great for assignment of mathematical algorithms), and Function Block Diagrams (best suited for machine control). Variables and outputs can be referenced between different POUs (Programming Organization Units), providing the ideal automation development environment.

MotionWorks IEC is an essential part of Yaskawa’s achievement of Singular Control: the ability to interchangeably operate articulated robots, gantry robots, servo axes and variable frequency drives from a single motion controller, without the need to change your system’s operating code.

Application Note: Motion Control System AN.MCD.01 276KB Rev Date:01/11/2010 Description: Motion control systems consist of three main components: a controller, an amplifier and the motor itself. These three components must work together in harmony to ensure high performance and ease-of-use. This article will examine the latest Yaskawa product offerings in these three areas. It will show how these products work individually, and how they work together in an integrated motion control system.
