Abstract :
Combining programmable motion and sequential I/O subsystems forms the basis for truly integrated high volume production machine control. An examination is made of high volume production control system requirements, servo-based motion technology, and overall machine control design guidelines. Suggestions are also given for determining an optimum control system cost/benefit balance.<>
