What type of rockwell PLC would you be using with it?
What software do you currently have of rockwell?
Studio5000, rslogix 5000, rslogix 500?
Hello all,
Im hunting gathering for my next rev of CNC machine and came into some Kinetix 6000 servos, drives and sercos equipped PLC's. Any AB/Rockwell experts that can fill me in on the interfacing possibilities. I've been using Yaskawa Sigma V which has easy phase, up/down, forward/reverse inputs that work nicely with Linux CNC. Is this possible with the Kinetix system, it's nice stuff but not sure about what I'm getting into with it... Just the software is making me skeptical about moving forward with it...but not quite ready to give up on it yet. The plan B is to sell it off and get the Yaskawa stuff I've grown accustomed to.

It came with Logix 5343 (1768) PLC with the Sercos and ethernet interfaces and 24 ports of relay I/O.
I don't at present have any of the SW, seems really pricey...

Hi there, did you ever make it work? I messed up and bought just about what you have and to my surprise I couldnt figure how to have a cnc controller control this system. Any suggestions?
Thanks
