CNC technology expands the B&R drive solution with functionalities that enable multiple axes to be combined into groups and path-controlled movements to be performed.
Path-controlled movements are the basis for precise and complex workpiece manufacturing. In addition to a wide range of interpolation methods, many technology functions are also supported.
The use of PLCopen-compliant mapp Motion components allows CNC technology to be seamlessly integrated into the machine application.
