Product Name Type Connectivity Product Description
AnyNET I/O ANE2 2-Channel SSI InterfaceI/O InterfaceModbus TCPAMCI's ANE2 connects a wide variety of SSI sensors to your PLC using a standard network connection, and it programs using the host controller's (PLC) native software.
Nexus Distributed I/O Multi-Axis Stepper Motor ControllerControllerModbus TCPMulti-axis stepper motor controllers that can simultaneously control the position and velocity of up to four stepper motors. Its built-in network interface makes it simple to connect to a wide variety of PLCs that support Modbus TCP and many other industrial networks. The NEXUS plugs into the network (not the PLC/PAC) allowing for installation in a remote location convenient to the application, greatly reducing cabling time and costs. Encoder feedback for move verification is also available.
Nexus Distributed I/O: High Speed PLS ControllerI/O ModuleModbus TCPHigh-speed Programmable Limit Switch (PLS) controllers that use an incremental encoder or resolver for position feedback, and provide up to 16 I/O points. Compatible with a wide variety of PLCs that support Modbus TCP and many other industrial networks, these units control the outputs independently from the PLC scan, enabling them to achieve a high-speed update time of 100µs. The NEXUS plugs into the network (not the PLC/PAC) allowing for installation in a remote location convenient to the application, greatly reducing cabling time and costs.
ANG1(E) Stepper Motor Indexer/DriverAC/DC Drive ControlModbus TCP, Modbus RTUAMCI's ANG1(E) integrates a DC powered, 4.0 amp microstepping drive and motion controller, simplifying installation and cutting costs. Move commands are easily programmed through the host PLC/PAC software, and cabling is drastically reduced by expanding up to 6 axis of motion over a single network connection.
NR25 Absolute Rotary EncoderSensorModbus TCPThese heavy-duty rotary encoders supply absolute position and velocity data without glass discs or sensitive LED components, enabling them to withstand high levels of shock and vibration. The encoders can be connected to a PC, network, or PLC that supports Modbus TCP and are available in absolute single-turn and multi-turn packages with an IP67 rated 2.5" housing.
SD31045E Stepper Motor Indexer/DriverAC/DC Drive ControlModbus TCPThis 230V AC powered 4.5 Amp integrated stepper indexer/driver eliminates the need for a separate stepper controller in the PLC. Adding stepper axes is very easy; as users simply attach another SD31045E to their Modbus TCP network.
SD17060E Stepper Motor Indexer/DriverAC/DC Drive ControlModbus TCPThis 115V AC powered 6.0 Amp integrated stepper indexer/driver eliminates the need for a separate stepper controller in the PLC. Adding stepper axes is very easy; as users simply attach another SD17060E to their Modbus-TCP network.
Modbus TCP Stepper Indexer/Driver, SD31045E & SD17060E AC/DC Drive ControlModbus TCPThe powerful (4.5 & 6.0 Amp RMS) AC line powered stepper motor controller/drivers eliminate the need for a plug-in card, and are easily configured through the host PLC software. AMCI?s E-drives offer system builders a choice of open or closed loop control modes, and come standard with a variety of features.
