Product Description

The Mitsubishi Q173PX is a specialized motion control module from the MELSEC-Q Series, designed to interface with manual pulse generators and incremental synchronous encoders. It supports up to three MR-HDP01 manual pulse generators or equivalent encoders, enabling precise position control in applications such as robotics, CNC machinery, and automated assembly lines. The module also features three tracking enable inputs, facilitating synchronization and real-time monitoring of motion parameters. Its compact design and high-speed processing capabilities make it suitable for integration into space-constrained and performance-critical automation systems.​
