DMC-C640 standalone motion controller—high performance, low price.
Overview
The DMC-C640 series standalone motion controller is a new product jointly designed by Zhongbaolun Automation Co., Ltd. and GALIL, the world’s leading pioneer in motion control systems, in response to the demand from Chinese users and emerging markets for low-cost, high-quality digital motion controllers. This product is manufactured in China. Inheriting nearly 40 years of wisdom and experience from GALIL, it boasts an exceptionally high cost-performance ratio. Moreover, the series of feature-rich, easy-to-use, and versatile expansion modules—carefully designed by Zhongbaolun on this foundation—have made it the top choice for a wide range of users.
The DMC-C640 series comprises three models: the DMC-C640 Basic, the DMC-C640A Extended, and the DMC-C640D Special. This series of products features a high-speed 32-bit DSP based on a RISC architecture, along with high-speed FLASH and RAM memory used for storing control programs, parameters, and arrays, enabling rapid data processing, real-time closed-loop precision control of each axis, and event management. It incorporates advanced algorithms such as PID control algorithms with velocity and acceleration feedforward, notch filtering, low-pass filtering, and velocity smoothing techniques designed to mitigate shocks, ensuring excellent dynamic and static performance of the motion axes. The system is equipped with two 100M Ethernet ports and one RS232C serial communication interface. It can control 1 to 4 axes of either servo motors or stepper motors—or any combination thereof. The system supports advanced motion control functions including multi-axis PTP positioning, linear/arc interpolation, contour control, tangent tracking, electronic gearing, electronic camming, gantry synchronization, and PVT control.
To facilitate user programming and usage, GALIL provides a simple and easy-to-use 2-character command set as well as user-friendly terminal programming and debugging software (such as GalilSuite and GDK), which can be used for program editing, I/O status monitoring, and dynamic performance debugging. In addition, GALIL offers gclib/API library functions that enable users to develop human-machine interface and digital control software with unique features using high-level languages such as C/C++ and VB/VC.
This product series features high-speed input latching, comparator outputs, emergency stop inputs, positive and negative limit switches for each motion axis, and home-position input interfaces. In addition, the differentiated designs of the three specifications can maximize satisfaction of the personalized needs of various industries and different customers.
