Flexible axis controller
This single- to six-axis controller unit complete with drives, power supply, I/O, enclosure, onboard computer and 10-inch touch screen. The controller card and modules communicate via the CAN bus for a modular design.
The iMC-V CAN controller is a single-to-six-axis controllerunit complete with drives, power supply, I/O, enclosure, onboard computer and10-inch touch screen. The controller is compatible with Techno's gantry tables,linear slides, belt drive actuators and rotary tables, and can be used forpick-and-place, dispensing, assembly, testing, drilling, routing, welding andgeneral automation.
The controller card and modules communicate via the CAN bus
for a modular design. There are 16 digital inputs and eight digital outputs per
unit, which can be expanded up to 128 points of I/O through the CAN bus. The
controller can also perform linear, circular and helical interpolation,
expandingits potential applications. A rugged industrial desktop enclosure
(optional frame mount) with 10-inch touch screen and keyboard are designed to
be robust to operate on the plant floor.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
