NextMove BX-II

NextMove BX-II provides 2 to 4 axes of coordinated servo motion in a compact book style enclosure that conveniently connects to Baldor's range of servo and vector drives. Synchronization of axes is easily accomplished with the dedicated master encoder input.

On board I/O can be used to control many parts of the machine. This can be further expanded with either Baldor's range of CAN I/O modules operating over the NextMove BX CAN bus, or alternatively, CANopen devices conforming to the standard DS401 I/O profile.

NextMove BX-II utilises a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) providing floating point math capability. Versatile programming is provided by means of Mint - multitasking BASIC, embedded 'C' or the supplied ActiveX components.

With its two serial channels and two CAN channels, NextMove BXII easily interfaces to other equipment.
