PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
MITSUBISHI FX2N-20GM - 2-Axis Positioning Module
The MITSUBISHI FX2N-20GM is a dedicated positioning control expansion module designed for seamless integration with the MITSUBISHI MELSEC FX2N series programmable logic controllers. This module provides precise pulse train outputs for the independent control of two axes, enabling accurate point-to-point positioning, speed control, and linear interpolation functions. It is engineered for deployment in compact industrial automation systems requiring deterministic motion control for applications such as material handling, indexing, and small-scale robotics.
