Multi-axis synchronization demo

Motion control proof of concept demo demonstrates high-speed, multi-axis motion control using a coordinated, deterministic control network.
In this demo, pencil leads are attached to two rotary placers that move apart and come together in a highly synchronized sequence, simulating a packaging machine with highly coordinated motion requirements. Yaskawa's motion control technology can accommodate up to 256 axes of synchronized motion.
