The Omron NX701-1720 Machine Automation Controller combines high-performance machine control with time-series data collection capabilities for large-scale industrial automation systems. It integrates motion and logic control while supporting synchronized operation across extensive multi-axis machine architectures. Native EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP communication provide connectivity with compatible motion devices, I/O systems, and industrial networks. The time-series data functionality extends the controller beyond machine execution by supporting collection of operating information within connected automation environments. The NX701-1720 brings synchronized machine control and industrial data handling together within the networked PLC motion control range supporting Omron industrial automation.
