MC_COORD – Motion control - coordinated movement blocks

The MC_COORD library is specifically designed for the coordination of multi-axis motion control within complex systems. It encompasses a variety of blocks, including MC_MoveLinearAbsolute for executing precise linear movements, complemented by MC_MoveLinearRelative for relative linear motion. For the execution of circular motion, the library incorporates MC_MoveCircularAbsolute alongside MC_MoveCircularRelative, ensuring detailed circular trajectories. In the context of managing group axis control, this library introduces MC_AddAxisToGroup, which is further supported by functionalities such as MC_GroupEnable for activation, MC_GroupDisable for deactivation, and MC_GroupHalt for immediate stopping of grouped axes. Furthermore, the library provides MC_MoveDirectAbsolute and MC_MoveDirectRelative, enabling direct control over axis movements. For navigating through complex paths, MC_MovePath is made available. Essential monitoring and control features are facilitated by MC_GroupReadActualPosition for positional data, MC_GroupReadActualVelocity for velocity insights, MC_GroupReadError for error detection, and MC_GroupReadStatus for status updates. Additionally, the library integrates MC_ReadCartesianTransform and MC_SetCartesianTransform, which are vital for Cartesian transformation processes. This collection of functionalities underscores the library’s significance in applications that demand the synchronized control of multiple axes, particularly in the realms of robotics and automation systems.
