TM Robotics Cartesian Master Controllers
Controller Features: (CA25-M10, CA25-M40, CA25-M80)
Master Units
- The master units is the primary control processor for the system. In cartesian systems with more than one axis, an additional slave axis is required for each additional axis
- On our light and medium load actuators, the master units have a user selectable input power setting (100~115VAC or 200~230VAC), allowing for global integration capabilities
- On our larger cartesian models, 200-230VAC is used to power our larger, high efficiency AC Servo motors
- 8 inputs and 8 outputs standard. I/O Type (PNP vs NPN) is selectable at order placement to allow for easy integration in any region
- Each master unit is capable of simultaneously executing up to 4 independent tasks in sequential mode
- THP-4C Teach pendant is recommended with each Master unit
TM Robotics Cartesian Master Controllers
TM Robotics offers a range of advanced master controllers designed to provide precise control and flexibility for multi-axis Cartesian systems. These controllers are essential for managing complex automation tasks, ensuring high performance and reliability.
Product Overview
The master controllers serve as the primary control processors for Cartesian systems. They are available in several models, each tailored to different load capacities and operational requirements.
Controller Features
- Models: CA25-M10, CA25-M40, CA25-M80
- Power Settings: User-selectable input power setting (100~115VAC or 200~230VAC) for global integration capabilities. Larger models use 200-230VAC to power high-efficiency AC Servo motors.
- Inputs/Outputs: 8 inputs and 8 outputs standard, with selectable I/O type (PNP vs NPN) at order placement to allow for easy integration in any region.
- Task Execution: Capable of simultaneously executing up to 4 independent tasks in sequential mode.
- Teach Pendant: The THP-4C Teach pendant is recommended with each master unit for ease of programming and operation.
Enhanced Functions
- Servo Control Engine: A high-performance servo control engine is used in every master controller to handle complex trajectories and 3D interpolation, such as complete sealing work.
- High-Load Controllers: Special controllers for motor capacities greater than 750 W are available to reduce the cost of high-load systems.
- Scalability: A master unit with a built-in driver for one axis can be connected to additional slave controllers, handling up to four control axes. This eliminates the need for a high-function master unit for 3- and 4-axis combinations, reducing costs and space requirements.
- Processing Speed: Increased processing speed for further reducing cycle times.
- External Point Designation Mode: Enhanced mode allows for external output of the point table number after positioning, simplifying integration. This mode performs positioning operations via input signals from a PLC or other device without the need for programming.
Applications
TM Robotics Cartesian master controllers are suitable for a variety of industrial applications, including:
- Automated Assembly: Enhances precision and efficiency in assembly lines.
- Material Handling: Optimises the movement and placement of materials in manufacturing processes.
- Packaging: Improves the speed and accuracy of packaging operations.
- Inspection Systems: Facilitates the integration of complex inspection systems requiring multi-axis control.
Conclusion
TM Robotics’ Cartesian master controllers provide a reliable and efficient solution for managing multi-axis Cartesian systems. With their high-performance servo control, flexibility, and enhanced functions, these controllers are an excellent choice for businesses looking to optimise their automation processes.

- A high-performance servo control engine is used in every master controller to enable handling of even the most complex trajectories and 3D interpolation, such as complete sealing work
- A special line-up of controllers for high loads (motor capacities greater than 750 W) is available for reducing the cost of high-load systems
- A master unit with a built-in driver controls for one axis can be connected to additional slave controllers handle up to a maximum of four control axes (two axes in previous models). This eliminates the need for a high-function master unit, which was required for 3- and 4-axis combinations before. This enables lower costs and reduced space requirements
- The processing speed of the controller has been increased for further reducing the cycle time
- The “external point designation mode” has been enhanced so that after positioning is completed, external output of the point table number is possible, making integration even easier
- “External point designation mode” is an operation mode that performs positioning operation via input signals from the PLC or other device without the need to do any programming
