Motion controller with Profinet connection, also suitable for hydraulic applications

It is a S7-300 format member of the Simotion Motion Control System and has a Profinet interface.

This enables extremely efficiently control of up to 32 Motion Control axes. Its 35 MB memory configuration makes the C240 PN an efficient controller of more complex machines and systems. Combined with the ET 200S High Speed Profinet I/O, this controller is predestined for control tasks in hydraulic applications.

The Simotion Motion Control system is just as suitable for simple speed-controlled machines as for complex multi-axis machines. With three hardware platforms and numerous software-based functionalities, it is the right machine controller for a wide range of applications and requirements.
