I-Mark™ Controllers

Truly universal, the I-Mark™ industrial motion controller runs any dot-peen or scribe marking machine system. This includes ALL dual and triple axis marking systems with either electric and pneumatic mechanical marking processes. The I-Mark™ PC software features custom hardware configurations for stepper and servo motors.

Intuitive and powerful, the I-Mark™ Black Box can manage multiple axis, multiple machines and hundreds of layouts. In addition, it can accept and receive non-marking commands. This upgrade results in the ability to maintain and monitor 1 or hundreds of marking systems via network connections. Custom boxes can also control multiple machines.

I-Mark Series 1 Black Box Controller:

    I-Mark series 1 controller
  • NEMA 4 industrial enclosure 16" W x 12" H x 8" D
  • I-Mark networkable motor drive for stepper motor control
  • Sixteen (16) 24vdc optically isolated digital I/O fully programmable with software for controlling external hardware devices to help save costs in automated applications. (8 inputs and 8 outputs)
  • Binary select feature for selecting & executing multiple programs via the I/O
  • Ethernet 10/100 BaseT communications for programming and integration into system network
  • Ethernet -IP or Modbus TCP protocol for streaming data input (other protocols optional)
  • I-Mark high resolution networkable motor drives for stepper or servo motor control with 10a peak motor output per axis. (Up to 4-axis per controller)
  • Binary select feature for selecting & executing multiple programs via I/O.
  • Digital current and servo loops with line driver encoder  for controlling servo motors
  • Closed or open loop stepper motor control with micro stepping capability.
  • Industrial Harting interface connectors for marking head & I/O
  • Manual reset / E-stop pushbuttons. (also featured as remote options in the I/O interface)
  • Color display
