SmartMove –
1, 2, 3 Axis
Motion Contro l l e r
Positional Moves
Absolute & Relative move types allow high speed
point to point motion on one or all axes.
Speed, Acceleration & Deceleration can be defined
for each move type.
Trapezoidal profiled moves provide the fastest point
to point move but exert the maximum jerk and shock
on a system.
S-ramp profiled moves provide a more smooth
velocity profile that prolongs the life of machine
mechanics.
Contouring allows a stream of point to point moves
to be blended together into a continuous and smooth
motion.
Interpolated Moves
Linear Interpolation across two or three axes allows
positional moves to be defined in terms of a linear
X, Y, Z vector.
Circular Interpolation across the first two axes allow
a complete or partial arc to be defined.
Contouring allows a string of linear and circular
interpolated moves to be blended together into a
continuous complex path of motion.
Master/Follower
Electronic Cam replaces the traditional mechanical
cam with a servo motor and software programmable
cam profile. SmartMove supports one cam profile for
the first two axes.
Electronic Gearbox & Clutch enables two motor
shafts to be linked together in precise synchronization
with a software programmable gear ratio. SmartMove
allows any axis to be geared to any other axis or to
the Pulse and Direction inputs.
Flying Shear allows operations to be performed at
regular intervals on a continuously moving web.
Acceleration, synchronization and return stroke are
linked by software to the movement of the product.

P rogrammable Functions
SmartMove is programmed in Baldor’s easy to use MINT language. MINT supports a wide range of motion and
control functions outlined below and described more fully in the beginning of this section.
