VM Series Flexible Remote Module Overview
VM series flexible remote module is the new generation among extension modules from Veichi, featuring light weight, fast signal acquisition, easy assembly, and high reliability. It is suitable for common bus networks with microsecond-level response speed. VM series flexible remote modules are available in a wide range of models, added with its excellent continuous operation performance and high responsiveness, to meet the various needs of industrial control automation.
Compact and lightweight module design,reducing the burden on electrical cabinets
For industrial control scenarios with strict size requirements, such as lithium batteries and semiconductor fields, PLC, as an important application component in manufacturing equipment, the compact and lightweight module design provides a more economical and convenient expansion method while saving space in electrical cabinets.
EtherCAT bus design, unrestricted communication
Adopting EtherCAT bus communication interface, multiple communication modules can be used, and each coupler supports up to 16 expansion modules. This allows for convenient communication access in complex application scenarios.
Profinet slave design, high system adaptability
Equipped with PN Slave, compatible with PROFINET Master devices, and can establish communication with up to 16 VM series flexible remote IO modules, easily achieving various system configurations.
Real-time data transmission, microsecond-level response
Based on EtherCAT bus communication technology, real-time control and real-time data transmission of the stepper system are achieved, achieving microsecond-level response. The minimum communication cycle can reach 125μs, and the synchronization cycle is 125μs~8ms, with a synchronization jitter of ±80ns.
Plug and play, easy installation
Plug-in rail installation allows for easy connection between components, and the plug heads can be easily matched with terminal base, enabling quick modular installation and improving wiring flexibility.
Optimize the wiring process, improve efficiency
Compared to complex wiring processes, the new modules adopt a Push-in terminal design, eliminating the need for specific wiring tools. The wiring process is quick and easy, saving time and effort. In case of any fault issues, the detachable terminal design allows for easy separation from the base, greatly improving replacement efficiency.
Diverse module options, versatile assembly
The modules offer a wide range of options, supporting various DI/DO, AI/AO, thermal resistance sensors, thermocouple sensors, and more. They are easy to assemble and feature color-coded markings for easy identification and confirmation.
Suitable for various scenarios, providing more possibilities
With the new demands faced by the manufacturing industry in the era of Industry 4.0, the new generation VM series flexible remote module will be widely applied in fields such as energy storage lithium batteries, printing and packaging, semiconductors, metal processing, and non-metal processing.
In the future, Veichi will rely on its strong motor drive, power electronics, and motion control technologies to continuously provide industrial control automation products and comprehensive system solutions for various industries, supporting the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing industries.
