Motion Control Programming
Motion Control Programming
Because Motion is our core. It is at the heart of everything we do.
The ever-escalating demands of the marketplace mean increased pressure on OEMs at every turn. There are time constraints to meet customer needs for machines, demands for more throughput, and having to think about the next-generation machine even before the current one is built. While expectations are enormous, budgets aren’t. Kollmorgen’s innovative motion solutions and quality products help engineers not only overcome these challenges but also build truly differentiated machines.
Because motion matters, it’s our focus. Motion can distinctly differentiate a machine and deliver a marketplace advantage by making it more efficient and productive. This translates to overall increased efficiency on the factory floor. Perfectly deployed machine motion can improve operator safety, enhance reliability, and reduce mean-time between failures. Motion also represents endless possibilities for innovation. We’ve always understood this potential, and thus, have kept motion at our core by relentlessly developing products that offer precise control of speed, accuracy, and position in machines that rely on complex motion.
Our solution offering in Motion Control is backed by vast experience solving customer problems in the industry. We recognize that customers may want standard solutions for reuse of existing knowledge and resource bases or may want custom solutions that offer differentiation. To this end, we offer two Motion Control programming solutions.
