Mitsubishi Electric has just added another new member to its MELSEC FX3 series of compact controllers. Designed specially for the needs of smaller but performance critical applications, the FX3G still delivers a powerful combination of essential features. These include a large programme memory to implement sophisticated algorithms, ample space for data storage, logging or recipes, plus high speed execution to enhance system productivity. Like all the controllers of Mitsubishi’s current third generation series, a dual bus architecture provides flexible expansion possibilities for additional I/O capacity and communication functions. The FX3G provides direct control of up to three independent axes without any additional hardware.
