Nothing Found
Index multi-axis synchronizationIn industrial applications such as printing, punching and labelling, up to four axes can be synchronized. Utilizing print marks, the various axes are precisely synchronized, so that the printed images are superimposed without any offset. Precise control of all axes is therefore essential for a high-quality result. |
MC700: Intermittent Printing, Label Printing, Rotary Punching
For numerous applications in the fields of printing, punching and labelling, Motrona has developed corresponding firmware, which can be used in combination with the MC700 hardware. Thus, we can offer ready and tested solutions for a variety of machine applications.

Where Are Multi Axis Motion Controllers Used?
Multi axis motion controllers are vital in industries where multiple motors or axes must remain perfectly synchronised.
- Packaging machinery – Coordinating sealing, cutting, and feeding systems to ensure each axis works in alignment with moving material, reducing waste and improving output.
- Printing and labelling – Keeping rollers, cutters, and print heads synchronised with print marks to achieve defect-free results at high line speeds.
- Extrusion lines – Managing multiple drives to ensure profiles are cut to length without interrupting material flow.
- Material handling – Controlling conveyors, lifts, and distribution systems to maintain smooth transfer of goods between processes.
- Textiles and nonwovens – Synchronising rollers and cutters for precise handling of delicate or continuous fabrics.
- Drive synchronisation systems – Units such as the BY701 are specifically designed for synchronising multiple drives in demanding industrial setups.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a multi axis motion controller?
A multi axis motion controller manages and synchronises multiple drives or axes, ensuring coordinated movement in complex industrial automation systems.
What is the difference between single-axis and multi axis controllers?
Single-axis controllers manage one drive, while multi axis motion controllers synchronise several drives simultaneously for processes requiring precise coordination.
Which industries use multi axis motion controllers?
They are widely used in packaging, printing, extrusion, material handling, and converting industries, where synchronised drive control is essential.
Can Motrona multi axis controllers integrate with PLC systems?
Yes. Motrona controllers connect seamlessly with PLCs, encoders, and industrial sensors for smooth integration.
Are multi axis controllers suitable for high-speed operations?
Yes. They are designed to maintain accuracy and synchronisation even in fast-moving production environments.
