MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, Ohio, Feb. 9, 2006 — Performance and cost-efficiency are in perfect balance with the new Allen-Bradley CompactLogix 1768-L43 controller from Rockwell Automation. Controlling up to four axes of motion, the CompactLogix 1768-L43 controller is ideal for material handling, packaging, metal forming and other applications requiring speed, motion synchronization and information-sharing capabilities – all in a small, modular footprint.

罗克韦尔自动化公司新型的艾伦-布拉德利的CompactLogix 1768-L43控制器在性能和价格之间找到了一个最佳的平衡点。CompactLogix 1768-L43控制器控制着四轴的运动，是材料处理、包装、金属铸造以及其他要求速度、运动同步以及信息共享能力应用的理想选择。而这一切全是完成在一个小小的模块面积里。

As an addition to the Rockwell Automation Kinetix Integrated Motion offering, the new controller combines motion and sequential control into a single, integrated multitasking platform that helps users lower system costs, simplify installation and ease maintenance.

作为罗克韦尔自动化Kinetix集成运动提供的一个补充，新控制器整合了运动和顺序控制成为一个单一的集成多任务平台，用于帮助用户降低系统成本，简化安装和减轻维护。

CompactLogix 1768-L43 also supports a full range of networks, including DeviceNet, ControlNet and EtherNet/IP, enabling a seamless flow of information from the smallest device up through the enterprise business system.

CompactLogix 1768-L43同样支持全部的网络，包括DeviceNet, ControlNet 和EtherNet/IP等，从而使得信息从最小的设备到企业商务系统之间无缝交流。

"We've taken the capabilities of our ControlLogix based, integrated motion control solution and made them available to customers who need these features in applications of four axes or less," said Lee Lane, Logix marketing manager, Rockwell Automation. "This enables customers to leverage all the benefits of Kinetix Integrated Motion, while cost-effectively integrating their small motion applications with the rest of the enterprise."

罗克韦尔自动化Logix市场经理Lee Lane指出：“我们获得了基于我们ControlLogix的集成运动控制解决方案的性能，并且使其适用于在四轴或四轴以下应用中需要此类功能的用户的要求。这样客户在合算地整合公司其他小型运动应用的同时，享受了Kinetix集成运动所能带来的所有利益。”

The CompactLogix 1768-L43 platform eliminates the need for a battery, reducing maintenance and support issues. In addition, the 1768-L43 platform supports removable CompactFlash memory that can be used as a program and firmware storage area, providing the user with the ability to archive projects that can be loaded to multiple controllers.

CompactLogix 1768-L43平台免除了电池的必要，减少了维护和支持问题。此外，1768-L43平台支持可移动的CF记忆卡作为程序和固件存储空间，赋予用户完成加载到多重控制器中的项目的权限。

CompactLogix leverages the same Logix control engine, motion, networking technology and communications services as the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix and SoftLogix controllers, making it part of a complete, scalable control architecture, the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture. The CompactLogix 1768-L43 controller will support the 38 embedded motion instructions and pre-loaded motion parameters currently offered on the ControlLogix controllers. In addition, CompactLogix employs Rockwell Software RSLogix 5000 programming software so users can move easily from one Logix application to another with no additional program development or training.

CompactLogix调节着与艾伦-布拉德利ControlLogix和SoftLogix控制器相同的Logix控制引擎、运动、网络技术以及通讯服务，使其成为罗克韦尔自动化集成结构中完整的、可升级的控制结构中的一部分。CompactLogix1768-L43控制器将支持38种嵌入式运动指令以及ControlLogix控制器普遍提供的预载运动参数。另外，CompactLogix使用了罗克韦尔软件公司的RSLogix 5000程序软件，所以用户可以很轻易地从一个Logix应用转移到另一个中去，而无须额外的程序开发或培训。

The CompactLogix 1768-L43 controller, 1768-M04SE motion module, and 1768-ENBT EtherNet/IP module will be available and shipping March 2006. The 1768-CNB ControlNet module will be available August 2006.

CompactLogix 1768-L43控制器、1768-M04SE运动模块以及1768-ENBT EtherNet/IP模块将在2006年三月份上市，而1768-CNB ControlNet将在2006年八月份上市。
