InstaSPIN Max Motor Capabilities

Hi,


I am working on a 3D printing application with 4-6 motors. I am looking into InstaSPIN for the C2000 but only find capabilities of running up to two motors. Does InstaSPIN have the capacity to handle additional motors and what would be the best solution for implementation?


Regards,

  • The F2802xF silicon can only run 1 instantiation of the library, so 1 motor.

    The F2805x and 6x silicon can run 2 instantiations of the library, but we haven't released a SW example yet. This is on our to-do list for 2015.

    In a 4-6 axis co-ordinated system it would be better to have a central motion controller creating the commands and an individual inverter controller at each motor.
