Fast control technology

eXtreme Fast Control (XFC) technology incorporates an industrial PC and I/O terminals with extended real-time characteristics, an Ethernet Fieldbus, EtherCAT and TwinCAT automation software. The device enables cycle times of 100 microseconds without having to give up central intelligence and the associated high-performance algorithms. The technology includes standard IEC 61131-3 programming on real-time tasks, time stamping and over-sampling for high timing resolution and an ultra-fast control CPU.
