Trio Motion CoordinatorTM Servo and Stepper Controllers Trio Motion Technology, a world class engineering and manufacturing company of multi-axis motion controls, introduces an EtherNet/IP interface to its popular Motion CoordinatorTM servo and stepper controllers. Trio’s EtherNet/IP daughter board allows connection of any Trio servo or stepper controller, handling 1-24 axes, to a master PLCs’ and other devices supporting Ethernet Common Industrial Protocol (CIP™) — the same upper-layer protocol and object model found in DeviceNet. Trio’s EtherNet/IP extends the company’s field bus communication offering to use off-the-shelf Ethernet hardware for industrial networking. The EtherNet/IP protocol can run along side standard TCP/IP bringing together plant floor automation and office networks. EtherNet/IP capability gives Trio customers a popular connectivity option to PLC and other master devices supporting the protocol. |

London based Windmill Studios provide audio-visual solutions for the conference, live event attractions industry and when Trio Motion launched its recent special offer for evaluation kits, it seemed an ideal opportunity to try out the MC206X motion controller whilst saving costs for a special effects project that involved animating Daleks in a visual panorama of synchronised graphics and motion for the phenomenally popular Dr Who Up-Close Exhibitions.
Leading motion control manufacturer, Trio Motion Technology, announces the ability to encrypt controller programs for safety and protection.
Trio introduces popular absolute encoder capability on its Motion Coordinators™. As a technology leader in motion controls, Trio now offers Heidenhain’s EnDAT and Tamagawa absolute encoder interfaces on the PCI-208 and 3U Euro205X Motion Coordinators™. The PCI-208 can accommodate up to 8 axes of standard or absolute encoders in any mix on the same hardware. The Euro205X can handle up to 4 axes. “These new interfaces compliment our existing SSI and incremental encoder options giving our customers the flexibility they need to solve more applications.” Says Ed Novak, North American Sales Manager.
Continuing its innovative trends, Trio announces the release of the new MC302-K “Drive-in” Motion Coordinator™.
Leading motion control manufacturer, Trio Motion Technology, announces Modbus TCP/IP communications using its ethernet interface.
The new CD is a radical update and reflects the new Trio web site. 
The new manual has information on Trio's newest Motion Coordinator products which include: 
Specifically designed for servo drive control applications, the SERCOS interface can transmit cyclic data at high speeds with precise synchronization. SERCOS has the advantage of being an open digital standard, which allows drive and controller users to avoid being "locked in" to proprietary systems. 
Trio Motion Technology, a leading manufacturer of multi-axes motion hardware and software has just issued Release 6 of its Tools & Resources CD. The totally revamped CD now contains Trio’s complete web site with all product data, along with many new application notes, Trio Tech Tips and FAQ’s making it easier than ever to apply Trio motion control products. In addition, new versions of Motion Perfect 2 TM, CAD2Motion, DocMaker and the all new CAMgen programs are included. 
A further extension of Trio’s unique daughter board concept, the new SERCOS interface uses the SERCON 816 ASIC to provide fast and precise communications using 32-bit digital technology. Operating at speeds up to 16MHz, the board enhances communications between compatible Trio Motion Coordinators and digital drives, significantly improving motor performance and positional accuracy. 
Leading motion control manufacturer, Trio Motion Technology, has announced that the company will launch a new Ethernet communication daughter board at the forthcoming Drives & Controls Exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham, UK.
The Motion Coordinator MC216 is based on Trio's high performance 32-bit DSP technology and provides up to 16 axes of servo or stepper control. The unit's flexibility is achieved using 4 axis slots in the MC216 module and up to three Axis Expander modules. The slots may be fitted with any combination of the 15 available "daughter boards". The flexibility of this systems allows the MC216 to be configured for a broad range of machinery requirements. Each axis may run moves using linear, circular or helical interpolations, electronic cams and gearboxes. Support is provided for the continuously rotating machinery and the daughter boards feature accurate hardware registration.
The Trio CAN 16 I/O module offers a compact DIN rail mounted I/O expansion capability for the Motion Coordinator Series 2 controllers including the MC202, 204, 216 and Euro 205. Up to 16 modules may be connected to the CAN link which may be up to 100m long. This provides 256 Bi-directional channels of distributed I/O and considerably reduces machine wiring.
The Trio CAN Analogue module offers a compact DIN rail mounted analogue input facility for the Motion Coordinator Series 2 controllers including the MC202, 204, 206, 216 and Euro 205. Up to 4 modules may be connected to the CAN link which may be up to 100m long. This provides up to 32 channels of +/-10v inputs and considerably reduces machine wiring.
To meet demand for large OEM customers for an economical multi-axis motion controller with a small footprint, Trio has used advanced FPGA techniques to reduce the size of a four-axis servo/stepper controller to fit on a single Eurocard. A fifth axis can be added on an expansion connector which will take standard Trio axis and communications daughter boards. User Programs are written in Trio's established Multi-Tasking BASIC and applications can be developed using the Windows based Motion perfect environment. Complex motion profiles are available and these can be linked to a master encoder input for Slaving, Gearing and Cams.
