February 29, 2024

Liquid Mixing with XPlanar Mover

The XPlanar mover have 6 axes: x,y,z and the rotation axes a,b,c. For complex movements, the XPlanar software is connected to all known motion components in the TwinCAT world. TwinCAT CNC, NC and NC Camming enable interpolated movement of the mover axes in particular. According to this, x, y, a and b axes can be coupled by a cam plate to enable the mixing of liquids from the movement of the X Planar mover.
