NI Motion Control Option

  • Automatically convert your project to LabVIEW VIs or C code
  • View a 3D preview window for easy visualization
  • Take advantage of tutorials and solution wizards for quick start-up
  • Use the point-and-click user interface for interpolated, circular, and contouring moves
  • Use smart contouring for better profile cutting machine performance

Add the National Instruments Motion Control Option to the NI Developer Suite Core Package to design a motion application in an interactive environment and deploy that application by converting the project into C code for any C compiler, or into NI LabVIEW VIs. NI Motion Assistant works with NI motion controllers for blended trajectory control and fully coordinated circular, linear, point-to-point, gearing, and vector-space control. Take advantage of the NI Motion Assistant patent-pending smart contouring functionality with an API that you can call from C, Visual Basic, or LabVIEW. Smart contouring is useful in metalworking and CNC-type applications where the machine needs to trace a different contour every time.

The NI Motion Control Option requires the NI Developer Suite Core Package and includes NI Motion Assistant.
