2013 GSDAA Finalist: Control System for Electron Beam (EB) Machine with LabVIEW and NI PXI

[Christina.Hadly]

2013 Advanced Research Finalist

Control System for Electron Beam (EB) Machine with LabVIEW and NI PXI

Authors: Gao Jie, Ralf Edinger, and Dmitri Sandler, PAVAC Industries Inc.

Challenge: Developing a multiaxis motion and programmable logic controller (PLC)-style control system featuring time-critical synchronization and signal generation.

Solution: Using NI PXI hardware to replace traditional PLCs, integrating multiaxis motion control seamlessly with the National Instruments LabVIEW NI SoftMotion Module, and solving time-critical issues with the LabVIEW Real-Time and LabVIEW FPGA modules.
