Advanced Micro Controls AMCI 3601 1-Axis Stepper Module

The AMCI 3601 is a single-axis motion controller module designed for Allen‑Bradley CompactLogix (and MicroLogix) PLC systems, delivering dedicated stepper motor control in a compact, slot‑based plug‑in form. It occupies one slot in the PLC backplane and, for CompactLogix installations, must be installed within seven module positions of the power supply. The 3601 provides encoder feedback and discrete inputs to regulate velocity and position of a stepper motor, and can operate in encoder follower mode. AMCI markets the 3601 as a one‑axis stepper controller for CompactLogix, with the 3602 serving as the two‑axis variant, reinforcing the 3601’s single‑axis design. It is designed to plug directly into CompactLogix controllers, enabling PLC‑level motion programming and precise motor control within Rockwell Automation ecosystems.
