Description
>
The PCI-7342 is a motion control hardware and software solution with the part numbers 186307F-01L and 778916-02. It falls under the category of Motion Control HW & SW, designed specifically for controlling servo and stepper motors. This model is capable of 2-axis control, making it suitable for applications requiring precise movement and positioning.
One of the key features of the PCI-7342 is its ability to perform multiaxis interpolation, which includes gearing, linear, and circular control, along with contouring capability. This feature allows for smooth and synchronized movement across multiple axes, essential for complex motion patterns. The controller’s PID update rate ranges from 62.5 to 500 µs/sample, offering flexibility in tuning the control loop for optimal performance.
The maximum step frequency supported by the controller is 4 MHz, and it can handle encoder input rates up to 20 MHz, ensuring high precision and responsiveness in motion control applications. Additionally, the PCI-7342 is quite efficient, with a power consumption of only 5.7 W.
Equipped with 32 digital I/O channels and PWM outputs with a frequency of 32 kHz, this controller offers ample connectivity options for various peripherals and devices. The inclusion of RTSI synchronization further enhances its capability to work seamlessly within a synchronized system environment.
The controller is supported by NI-Motion driver software, facilitating easy integration and programming. Despite its robust capabilities, the PCI-7342 maintains a compact form factor with a weight of 170 g and manageable dimensions, making it suitable for integration into a wide range of equipment and machinery.
