Motion control for CNC machines

The MN400 is a dual-processor motion controller by MicroKinetics Corp. that can be used with CNC machines, robotics and scientific instruments. This controller uses continuous-contouring algorithms that minimize deceleration/stop/acceleration between motion vectors. These algorithms also reportedly optimize motion speeds for smooth movement without compromising geometries. Multiple MN400s connect on one same two-wire network for an unlimited number of axes when used with RS485 ports. microkinetics.com
