Omron Industrial Automation NX1P machine automation controller completes the NX/NJ controllers family offering the same functionality in a compact design. A machine automation controller in basic terms is any information technology that controls machinery. Within today's modern technology, a machine functions with some form of computer control. In many cases, this is also integrated with business systems that provide control inputs.
OMRON NX1P brings advanced control to compact machines allowing you to boost productivity and improve quality. The NX1P Machine Controller is part of the Omron Sysmac Machine Control portfolio and promises to increase machine performance without compromising on quality.
This has faster adaptability and will ensure you get results quickly through the use of an intuitive Integrated Development Environment.NX1P compact machine controller completes the Sysmac machine controller family offering the same functionality as the modular NX controllers just in a small and compact design. This controller integrates the same functions from the Sysmac platform including its built-in EtherCAT port for real-time control and built-in Ethernet port for standard factory network connections.
The NX1P helps you achieve efficient manufacturing meaning your application will perform faster with higher quality and maximise machine uptime. This intelligent machine controller not only controls machine sequence but also provides the required functionality to allow for efficient production.
OEMs and manufacturers today need to manage the total cost and profits throughout the lifecycle of their machines. They require connected solutions to fulfill Industry 4.0 requirements, with easy-to-use software to reduce development time, scalability, and backward compatibility for maintenance, as well as the ability to support flexible production with fast-changing trends.
The NX1P2 family with built-in Ethernet IP and EtherCAT interface offers condition monitoring for predictive maintenance, a perfect sealing filter for thermoforming machines, KPI production measurement, as well as supporting automation for mobile robots.
