The FMC400 and FMC450 controller are fully-interpolating system which means that this controller enables the programming of tracks in up to 8 degrees of freedom. The controller has an easy to understand scripting language which allows to create even complex movement sequences. Several IO interfaces are available which opens the possibility to react to events from the outside or to report signals back to the higher-level system.

In addition to DC, BLDC and 3-phase motors, the controller FMC400 can also trigger <link web.archive.org/web/20210921053003/https://www.steinmeyer-mechatronik.de/en/competence-center-positioning-technology/glossary/detail/?tx_dpnglossary_glossarydetail%5Bcontroller%5D=Term&tx_dpnglossary_glossarydetail%5Baction%5D=show&tx_dpnglossary_glossarydetail%5Bterm%5D=21&tx_dpnglossary_glossarydetail%5BpageUid%5D=304&cHash=169ac2c7a478579b701d5e84d3a33bc6 - - "This piezo motor provides very high resolution in the nanometer range.">nanomotion</link> motors. The controller is rather suited for slow moving positioning systems with low loads due to the limited starting voltage of 48V for the FCM400.

The FCM450 is based on the same technology as the FMC400 controller, offers, however, streams of up to 8A at up to 80V which allows for increased dynamic and load. The controller is supplied as an 19 inch rack.

This motion controller is a sophisticated and yet easy to configure systems which is particularly suited for laboratory applications with smaller loads. Typically controlled measuring tables are the PMT series as well as all our cross tables up to size 310. In particular, we would like to point out that a lifelong service hotline (English) is available.
