Electronic Hardware

PMDi offers a wide range of electronic hardware including DSP servo motion controller boards and an assortment of I/O modules.

PMDi provides I/O for quadrature encoders, sin/cos encoders, analog signals for capacitive , inductive and other sensors, digital inputs and outputs, position capture and position compare.

Actuators supported include: brushed and brushless dc servo motors, piezo ceramic motors, voice coil actuators, magnetic bearings and stepper motors.

The circuit board above is the DMC100 which is a PCI-bus DSP master control board. This board has four MotionWireTM ports. MotionWire is PMDi's completely deterministic, high performance serial communication bus for I/O expansion.

Software

Outstanding capabilities are provided with PMDi's software offering. The software is easy to use with the highest productivity in the motion control market. Components include: motion control and data acquisition libraries, a full-featured software oscilloscope, signal analysis tools including system excitation and bode plots, and powerful HMI programming software for set up, instrumentation and application development.

A single software platform supports all hardware. Operating system support includes Microsoft Windows and Ardence RTX (formerly Venturcom RTX).

A sample of capabilities includes asynchronous event-based motion, coordinated curvilinear motion, buffered data acquisition, position capture and compare and Gcode interpretation.

The software application shown is MotionTools, our out-of-the-box HMI software for controlling and accessing any one of PMDi's control and data acquisition systems.
