Engraving machine - Motion control made by Schneider Electric

The demo shows a engraving machine based on the new Schneider Electric motion controller Modicon LMC078.
A drawing e.g. the profile of a person will converted via CAM software into G-Code and downloaded into the controller Modicon LMC078.
The name of the person can included on a touch panel Magelis XBT GT. After starting the machine the name and profile of the person will be engraved on a work piece while this is rotating on a disc.

Can someone explain how this is awesome???? It looks like they entered info and got results??

[@SEMotion1]

On a PC we create the contour line of photo (head of a person), convert this to a controller program (G code) and download it into the motion controller. Then we include the name of the person on the touch screen of the machine and engrave both on a work piece while this is rotating. See also the description below the video.

Why must the platter spin?

[@SEMotion1]

Because we intend to show the performance of our motion controller and it would be to easy if you do it without spin.

Haha, very nice. I cant imagine the maths that went into that.
