INMOCO has released the Kollmorgen PCMM2G programmable motion controller in the UK. This next-generation controller delivers enhanced performance, scalability, and ease of use in a powerful programmable motion controller suited for both simple and complex automation environments.
The PCMM2G supports both standalone machines and modular systems, with compatibility across Kollmorgen’s Automation Suite and third-party devices. The controller enables the seamless integration of motion control across up to 64 axes of synchroniszed motion, making it ideal for high-complexity environments.
Powered by a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, the PCMM2G delivers a cycle rate 1.5–3.5 times faster than previous models. It supports S-curve and other advanced motion profiles, catering to a wide range of automation requirements, and offers 16GB of internal memory, six digital inputs, and two digital outputs, as well as functional safety modules. Additional features such as an integrated human-machine interface (HMI) and support for external time servers ensure precise motion coordination, making the controller suitable for a wide array of industries.
For existing Kollmorgen users, the PCMM2G provides a simple and effective upgrade path. It is fully compatible with previous-generation PDMM and PCMM controllers, ensuring that systems can be easily modernised without requiring a complete overhaul.
