THE CLIPPER™

The Clipper ™ controller (Turbo PMAC2-Eth-Lite) from Delta Tau provides a very powerful, but compact and cost-effective, multi-axis controller designed for cost sensitive applications.

Careful design and manufacturing for optimization has brought the power of the world leading Turbo PMAC controller family to cost-sensitive applications that could never afford this level of performance before.

The Clipper is a full featured multi-axis controller with Ethernet and RS232 communication ports and built in I/O. It offers a full Turbo PMAC2-CPU and provides a minimum of four axes of servo or stepper control with 32-digital I/O points.

The Clipper can be used completely standalone, with occasional commands from a host computer or PLC, or with real-time high-speed streaming of data over the Ethernet link. The Clipper can supply the most demanding of applications at a fraction of the cost previously possible.

Base Specifications Include:

The standard Turbo PMAC2-ETH-Lite Controller provides a 110mmx220mm (4.25” x 8.5”) board with:

4 or 8 axes of simultaneous control (<0.5 ms update time)
All axes independent or coordinated in any combination
Multitasking of up to 16 motion programs and 64 asynchronous PLC programs
Easy-to-use, high-level programming language
Linear, circular, rapid, B-spline, Hermite-spline interpolation modes
True S-curve accel/decel for jerk-limited profiles
Dynamic multi-move lookahead for robust acceleration control
Coordinate system translation and rotation, 2D and 3D
Embedded forward and inverse kinematics routines for Non-Cartesian geometries
Tool-radius compensation
Hardware position capture and compare circuits for high precision
