Compact PLC C6 Compact

Compact PLC C6 Compact

• The compact PLC C6 Compact convinces with its efficient concept
• KEB's C6 Compact embedded controller combines economy with flexibility and excellent performance. In addition to the real-time EtherCAT-Master, there are a number of slave interface options available (CANOpen, Profibus, Profinet RT, Interbus, EtherCAT, Powerlink) as well as a CAN-Master.
• As a PLC, the Compact can take over the control of an entire system or serve as a lower-level controller. The real-time bus system provides coordination and synchronous progress of the axes and enables consistent communication and diagnostics on all levels up to the drive.
• The control system has an effective design that uses no superimposed operating system, so it can dedicate all computing potential to soft-SPS and motion task applications.
• In addition to real-time performance from each of the communication interfaces, the C6 Compact has four integrated digital inputs and four outputs. Expansion and decentralization of further I/O is controlled via EtherCAT bus, using an additional bus coupler.
• Programming and code processing are handled using COMBIVIS Studio 6 software, which is based on standard IEC 61131-3.
• Finally, a C6 HMI panel can easily be linked using Ethernet to enable remote maintenance tasks.
