One machine control through one connection and one software is how we define the Sysmac automation platform. The Machine Automation Controller integrates logic, motion, safety, robotics, vision, information, visualization and networking under one software: Sysmac Studio.
This one software provides a true Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The machine controller comes standard with built-in EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP. The two networks with one connection purpose is the perfect match between fast real time machine control and data plant management.

A large selection of CPU Units for up to 256 axes

Flexible system lets you integrate safety into machine automation through the use of Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE).

・Built-in EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP^TM ports : Global standard networks
・NX701-1[][][]/NX102-[][][][]/NJ501-1[]00 CPU Unit with built-in international standard (IEC 62541) OPC UA communication functionality
・Database connection: Logs real-time data from production lines directly into SQL Databases.
・This enables preventive maintenance and quality traceability.

・Fully conforms with IEC 61131-3 standards
・PLCopen function blocks for motion control
・Packed with Omron’s rich technical know-how. Various software components help reduce programming time.

One controller integrates logic, motion, vision and information for complete control and management of machines. Position, displacement, and tension information collected from sensors can be quickly and easily fed back to the motion control.

The NJ/NX controller offers synchronous control of all machine devices, from input through to output. Distributed clock-based clock synchronization incorporated into EtherCAT slaves enables the I/O refresh cycle to be synchronized between units such as the FH Vision System, ZW Displacement Sensor, NX I/O, and G5/1S Servo Drive.

Monitoring the sensor status allows you to maintain before sensors malfunction due to dirt or aged deterioration.* The sensor settings can be saved and loaded, which minimizes downtime when troubles occur.

The NJ/NX controller that integrates EtherCAT and motion control can constantly monitor actuator devices with a fast cycle time.
