Unionscience LicOS Motion Control for L-Type Carton Slotting

Unionscience LicOS Motion Solution for L-Type Carton Slotting Machines

12 11, 2025 Knowledge 1037

L-type carton slotting machines require high-speed, high-precision motion control to handle paperboard, greyboard, and specialty materials. Unionscience provides a compact and reliable control solution built on the LicOS engineering platform, MC611 PAC controller, and S3 servo drives, enabling OEMs to deliver faster and more accurate converting equipment.

High-Performance System Architecture

The solution unifies logic, motion, and feedback control.

The MC611 PAC coordinates multi-axis motion through EtherCAT, while S3 servo drives manage the main spindle, flying-knife axis, and real-time feedback correction. LicOS ensures a single development environment across PLC/PAC/HMI, reducing engineering time and improving system consistency.

Key Advantages for OEM Equipment

• Faster slotting speed

High-synchronization servo control increases throughput without compromising stability.

• Cleaner and more consistent cutting

Real-time feedback correction reduces mechanical deviation and improves repeatability.

• Simple format changeover

Parameter-based adjustment minimizes setup time when switching carton sizes.

• Scalable and open architecture

Supports extensions such as vision inspection, feeding modules, MES/SCADA connectivity, and custom motion functions.

Performance in Real Applications

Deployments in packaging equipment demonstrate significant improvements in speed, cut quality, and operational stability. The system maintains accuracy across long production cycles and varying material characteristics, making it suitable for both standard and high-end slotting machines.
