b maXX-drivePLC

Description
Complete spectrum of control solutions
 
Baumüller supports centralized, modular decentralized and hybrid control architectures,depending on the application. Baumüller provides solutions for each of the three topologies with the b maXX-drivePLC, b maXX-controllerPLC, b maXX-safePLC, b maXX PCE and b maXX PCC.
 
The b maXX controllers consistently implement the concept of scalability and modularity for flexible and individualized adaptation to the requirements of the mechanical engineer. The b maXX control platforms are fully integrated into the ProMaster Engineering Framework and are even suitable for highly synchronized drives thanks to their real-time capability.
 
 
With our b maXX-drivePLC, b maXX-controllerPLC controllers and the new b maXX-safePLC controller, we provide comprehensive solutions for every automation technology task. The b maXX PCE and the new b maXX PCC devices round out our product spectrum.
 
With a typical cycle time of 100 microseconds for 1000 lines of STL, the b maXX-drivePLC is one of the world’s fastest PLC’s in a drive and is therefore suitable for both comprehensive control tasks and demanding Motion Control tasks.
 
This takes some of the strain off the control PLC, which may be able to be made smaller. The machine program and the Motion Control application can be neatly de-coupled, giving the application transparency and clarity.
