ABB NSB204-502W motion control products NextMove  

NextMove ESB-2 is an economic eight

axes motion controller, with powerful

multitasking Mint programming. It

can provide control of up to 4 axes of

closed loop control (servo or vector)

and 4 axes of open loop control (step/

direction outputs).

USB, Serial and CANopen provide

flexible communications to PLC,

distributed I/O and other devices.

The controller’s low profile form

factor and two part screw terminal

connectors make it simple to install,

while integrated digital/analog I/O

including high-speed registration

inputs make this a single box solution

for many applications.

Ethernet machine control range

ABB’s e100 motion control solutions

provide all the benefits of NextMove

ESB-2 combined with Ethernet based

technology, controlling traditional analog,

stepper and distributed drives and I/O

in an array of different applications.

Applications include over-wrappers,

vertical form fill seal, tray sealers and

markets such as metal forming, material

handling and more.

PC tool offers simple and intuitive

commissioning

The Mint Workbench PC tool offers fast

and simple setup, commissioning and

monitoring in a single software tool. In

addition to a step by step configuration

wizard, oscilloscope graphing, parameter

view/edit/compare it also includes motion

programming, integrated help and a

support tool to package a single concise

email to streamline technical support.

Stand-alone operation

Onboard flash memory and NextMove’s

Mint or C programming capabilities

allow the controller to be operated as

stand-alone. Onboard communications

channels, including RS232/485,

CANopen and USB make it easier to

interface with other devices. Simple ASCII

protocols such as Modbus RTU allow

data transfer between PLCs and the

NextMove controller.
