Bridge the gap between theory and the factory floor with this Yamaha Linear Actuator Motion Control station, proudly Made in the USA.

You must purchase a PLC Trainer to add this accessory.

Core Capabilities

  • Yamaha Linear Actuator: Features a professional Yamaha linear actuator designed for high-precision pick-and-place and industrial robotics applications.

  • Integrated Motion Control: Learn to implement complex motion profiles using Add-On Instructions (AOI), allowing you to have your motion controller integrated and running in less than 30 minutes.

  • Kinetix Compatibility: Even when used with non-motion PLCs, this station allows you to master the same motion instructions used on Allen Bradley Kinetix servo controllers, making your skills transferable to high-end motion systems.

  • Closed-Loop Feedback: Experience real-world automation by programming the actuator to respond to sensor inputs and encoder feedback for precise positioning.

  • Cobot Ready: Designed with the versatility to be integrated with collaborative robots (cobots), teaching the fundamentals of modern robotic cell interaction.

System Requirements & Compatibility

  • Software Requirements: Compatible with standard PLC programming environments; utilizes specialized Add-On Instructions for rapid integration.

  • Flexible Integration: It can be purchased as a factory-installed option on any new TW Controls PLC Trainer or as an add-on for TW Controls units you already own.

What You Can Do With This Trainer

  • Program High-Precision Motion: Practice writing code for homing, jogging, and absolute vs. incremental moves on a real industrial actuator.

  • Master Rapid Integration: Learn how to use pre-built AOIs to drastically reduce the time it takes to get a new motion axis up and running.

  • Simulate Robotic Cycles: Create "Pick and Place" routines that mimic the high-speed sorting and assembly lines found in manufacturing plants.

  • Understand Servo Principles: Gain a hands-on understanding of how acceleration and deceleration curves affect machine performance and mechanical wear.

  • Troubleshoot Motion Faults: Practice diagnosing common motion issues such as positioning errors, over-travel faults, and communication timeouts.
