GuardLogix(R) Family Introduces New Mid-Range Controller Line: Compact GuardLogix
April 9, 2010
The new Compact GuardLogix controllers are the latest additions to the GuardLogix controllers family and provide integrated safety and motion in a single controller. These controllers use the same configuration, networking and visualization environment as larger scale GuardLogix systems, providing scalable integrated safety and motion options for midrange machines. Compact GuardLogix controllers are based on the widely accepted CompactLogix platform, offering even more memory and control options. With as many as eight axes of motion in a midrange control platform, and full support of CompactBlock Guard I/O and POINT Guard I/O on EtherNet/IP, new, cost-effective options are available for machine builders interested in standardizing on a single control platform for a variety of machines.
