PMAC enables sophisticated and precise control tuning, including high-speed synchronous control of various factory automation (FA) devices, thanks to integrated EtherCAT connectivity used for production lines and equipment worldwide. Its development environment allows users to program their own motion algorithms and motion control functions, such as path calculation and position compensation, in both C and proprietary programming languages.

OMRON offers two types of PMAC programmable multi-axis controllers that meet user needs.

PMAC: Programmable Multi-Axis Controller

CK3E Programmable Multi-Axis Controller
• Multi-axis control with a fast cycle time of 250 µs and EtherCAT master functionality. Flexible system configuration and high-speed synchronous control of FA devices connected via EtherCAT.
• Compact design, 28.6 mm thick, to save space on machines and control panels.
NY51_-A IPC PMAC Industrial PC-Based Programmable Multi-Axis Controller
• Advanced control and data management of up to 128 axes. Windows multitasking and custom motion control (motion algorithms, kinematics, position compensation, etc.).
• PLC-level environmental resilience. Hypervisor software*1 for uninterrupted machine control even if Windows is down.
*1. The software prevents mutual interference by properly allocating hardware resources to the OS. Machine control is not interrupted even if Windows crashes.
