Bright, Full Colour Touch Screen Interface

The AMC range includes models with 10.4”, 12.1”, and 15” Industrial LCD Touch Screen. With wide viewing angles, high contrast, and superior brightness the operator will be able to use the machine in almost any environment.

Rugged construction for tough industrial environments

Our products undergo extensive testing to ensure that they will withstand the harshest industrial environment. We subject the products to Vibration, Shock, Temperature extremes, Dust, Water, and Oil to ensure that they meet the required standards. Tough ABS plastic is used in the construction of the panel and the screen is sealed to the front panel to IP64 standards.

Windows XP Embedded Platform

The familiar Windows XP environment allows operators to be more productive in less time. For machine builders, it allows the use of standard Windows compatible programs and development tools to add and extend the controls features for their specific application.
High speed real-time performance is achieved by the addition of a real-time kernel extension allowing the processing power to be put to the best use on demand.

Windows networking and Internet connectivity is standard via either the 1Gbit LAN port or the 802.11 b/g WiFi connection.
With Windows extensive driver support, the addition of USB devices like Printers, Cameras, Barcode Readers, or Flash Drives is effortless.

Full CNC Function

All of the AMC range of controls come standard with ANCA Motion’s Open CNC Software platform. The CNC platform supports all standard M and G code functions and also allows customisation and extensions to these functions.

Ability to add custom cycles for drilling, tapping, piercing, and other complex machine operations packaged as a single G Code mean the part program complexity can be greatly reduced.

Features like Gantry control and Slave axis can be added at any time without any additional CNC hardware. The addition of Axis, Pitch, and Backlash compensation ensures that regardless of the machine design, the greatest accuracy can be achieved.

Soft PLC

The PLC functions on the AMC is implement as software so no additional hardware is required. The functions of the PLC can simply be extended using easy to learn structured text. All the development and diagnostic tools are included with the CNC software.

EtherCAT field bus for Servo control and IO

The AMC CNC makes use of the latest industrial Ethernet field bus EtherCAT. EtherCAT delivers a real time, high performance, and fully featured field bus over standard Ethernet cabling. Based on open standards EtherCAT is a well established and proven industrial field bus. The simplicity of the design means that other than the 12V power for the AMC, the only other wiring required for your CNC will be an Ethernet cable to connect to the Servo drives and IO devices.
