Product Introduction
The Schneider Electric LMC058LF42 is a high-performance Logic Motion Controller designed as part of the PacDrive LMC058 series, ideal for synchronizing multiple axes of motion in real-time within compact automation systems. Engineered for small to mid-range machine control, it integrates seamlessly into automation architectures where tight integration of motion and logic is required.
The controller features embedded Ethernet and serial communication ports, allowing for rapid data exchange and real-time machine feedback. With support for up to 4 axes via CANopen, the LMC058LF42 is perfect for applications requiring synchronized motion control, such as pick-and-place machines, conveyors, labeling equipment, and packaging lines.
It combines the flexibility of IEC 61131-3 compliant programming with the performance of integrated motion control, all in a compact, DIN-rail mountable design. Designed to be cost-efficient, the LMC058 series bridges the gap between complex motion systems and basic programmable logic controllers.
