Motion Controllers, Ethernet / EtherCAT / RS232 / RS485 / USB / Network

Galil Motion Control is the leading supplier of high-performance, cost-effective and easy-to-use controllers with over 500,000 controllers installed world-wide.  

Galil's complete line of Motion Controllers includes single and multi-axis; bus-based and stand-alone; and box-level and card-level controllers.  

The Accelera Series offers the highest speed and performance while the Econo Series is designed for the lowest cost.  Galil's Single-Axis controller series offers cost-effective, compact solutions for single-axis applications.

Galil's ultra-high-speed Accelera Series represents its 5th generation motion controllers.   Pumped up with a powerful RISC processor, the Accelera series race along at much higher speeds than prior generation controllers. 

This device features an Ethernet 10/100Base-T port, a main USB port, and an auxiliary RS-232 port, along with optional plug-in amplifier boards for driving stepper, brush, or brushless servo motors up to 750 Watts, and the capability to connect to external drives of any power range.

It is user-configurable for stepper or servo motors on any axis, supports optional firmware for piezo-ceramic motors, and is adaptable for sinusoidal commutation. The system accepts up to 15MHz encoder frequencies for servos and outputs up to 3MHz for steppers, offering PID compensation with advanced filtering and supports multiple modes of motion including jogging, point-to-point positioning, and more.

 Galil's DMC-41x3 Econo Series motion controllers deliver precise, multi-axis control in a low-cost package. Prices for the 4-axis Econo controllers are as low as $395 US/ea in 1,000 quantities which is less than $100 US per axis. Econo controllers don't stint on performance and can handle any mode of motion with precision and ease. Advanced coordinated motion allows for tightly coupled, high-speed motion among axes without having to burden the host computer.  Features of the Econo series include:

The DMC-500x0 EtherCAT Master Multi-Axis Motion Controller is Galil Motion Control's newest entry in its latest generation of Accelera digital motion controllers. The DMC-500x0 is offered in 1 through 8 axis formats. Axes 1 - 4 can be configured as either local or EtherCAT drives while axes 5 – 8 can be configured for additional EtherCAT drives. Unique to the motion control industry, this ability to mix and match local and EtherCAT drives on the same controller provides increased flexibility for any application. In addition, the DMC-500x0 is fully compatible with Galil's internal servo and stepper motor amplifiers as well as third party external drives.

Introducing the DMC-52xx0c EtherCAT Master, Galil's first 32 axis motion controller. This new addition to Galil's EtherCAT family is a pure EtherCAT controller with the ability to control up to 32 drives and 2 I/O modules. This space efficient package also provides uncommitted I/O for easy integration into any EtherCAT application.
