V31 Motion Controller

High Performance, Factory Ready CNC Controller

The V31 Motion Controller is our high performance, industrial motion controller designed to run 24x7 on factory floors. It connects your CNC control PC to drives and motors over Ethernet while supporting both EtherCAT and traditional step-and-direction control for maximum machine flexibility.

From 2-Axis Lathes to Large Multi-Axis Machines, the V31 is designed for real industrial CNC environments.

  • Supports EtherCAT and differential Step/Direction Motors in parallel
  • Up to 12 synchronized motion axes
  • 6 differential Step/Direction axis outputs
  • Dedicated Ethernet communication to control PC
  • Supports mixed EtherCAT and Step/Direction machine architectures
  • Industrial 24VDC Sourcing I/O architecture
  • Noise-resistant differential signaling
  • Supports plasma, routers, mills, lathes, and specialty CNC systems
  • EtherCAT expandability up to 30 devices
  • Support for Mach4, Mach Pro, and LinuxCNC software platforms.
