SuSim Motion Core

The heart of the rig: a central controller with modular extensions for the individual drives.

Motion Core / Planned features

One control centre for your rig.

Motor modules controlled simultaneously
Expansion target: up to10
Central control

Control link to the rig
One cableRJ45

Controlling up to ten motor modules simultaneously over CAN is an expansion target, not a confirmed capacity. Firmware and bus traffic must be designed for this and tested on the hardware. RJ45 refers to the control link, not the motors’ power supply.

The control box, inside and out

The front combines the display with buttons labelled Start/Stop, Reset and Parking. The transparent CAD view shows the arrangement of the circuit board, display and controls inside the housing. Select a view to enlarge it.

The idea

Motion Core brings central control together and connects it to individual expansion modules. Clear separation of the components keeps the build organised, serviceable and ready for further functionality.

Current status

Prototype. The control box and its modules are being developed, tested and documented step by step.

For DIY builders

The technical structure should avoid unnecessary complexity. The aim is an understandable build for anyone who wants to understand, adapt and extend their motion rig.
