The CP1 family is the perfect choice for any application that requires positioning. Whether for
conveyor control, point-to-point position control, or non-interpolated pick-and-place systems, the
combination of high-speed pulse outputs, variable speed drive control and position feedback will
provide all the functionality that you need for your application.
Easy positioning, quick results
Ideal for position control
When simplicity and ease of use are essential, there is no
better solution for your position applications than combining
the CP1 family with servos and inverters from Omron’s
extensive range. The SmartStep 2 servo drive is a perfect
partner and offers high performance while keeping things
simple and cost effective. With the servo position feedback
to the controller for position loop control you can monitor
the actual positioning and it can also be used to synchronise
with another axis. Omron provides standard functions and
Function Blocks for SmartStep 2 and other servo drives to
create your application with minimal effort.
Easy variable speed drive control
Variable speed drive control is made easy within the CP1
family by using the serial port(s) and the Easy Modbus Master
feature for high-speed communication. Omron Function
Blocks enable you to control and monitor up to 31 inverters
in real-time simply by configuration of parameters. With the
encoders connected to the high-speed counter inputs, the
CP1 is able to calculate the exact position to perform accurate
positioning easily and quickly. In addition, in the MX2 inverter
series, all simple positioning is handled within the drive
itself.
