Software Motion Control
What is Soft-Motion?
Software motion control uses the computing performance of a multi-core PC. WMX3 runs on Windows without an NC board or dedicated controller and is suitable for high-speed multi-axis synchronous control of manufacturing equipment and robots.
Can Windows provide real-time control?
By installing RTX and assigning a dedicated CPU core and memory to software motion control, a Windows PC can provide fast, stable real-time control without interference from ordinary Windows processes.
