Controller FCT640 Modular

For industrial motion control, CMZ provides FCT640 programmable plc controller: a modular, compact and high performing system based on CODESYS 3.5 with integrated I/Os.

Its technological soul is fully conceived and developed by CMZ.

FCT640 integrates motion control solutions into a single and compact technological device. The controller is equipped with all the field buses used in industry (EtherCAT, CANopen, ModbusTCP) and integrated modular I/O units, both digital and analog.

The choice of the OPC UA communication protocol is a coming soon implementation, to allow the system to be networked to the outside efficiently and safely by ensuring full connectivity with other devices as a relevant feature for Industry 4.0. interoperability.

The power of the processor, the presence of Ethernet and CAN ports and serial ports, alongside with a total memory capacity of over 1 GB plus an SD-Card, complete FCT640 technological equipment.
