The Application of EtherCAT Fieldbus in Pure-Software Open CNC System

Article Preview

Abstract:

EtherCAT fieldbus is widely used in the NC field for its superior performance. Based on ADX CNC, a pure-software open CNC system designed by Amoy Dynamics (Xiamen) CO., LTD,this paper comprehensively compares VersioBus with EtherCAT which are two communication platforms supported by ADX CNC and explicitly introduces the application of EtherCAT fieldbus in pure-software open CNC system with a real example. The application results show that the system is stable, fast response and high precision.
