Smart Automation for Textile Machines with LXM28, LXM32, & Modicon M241

In the textile industry, machines need to run fast, smooth, and without errors. From looms to winders, everything depends on how well motion and control work together. Many machine builders face delays, wiring issues, and control problems when using older systems.
Pima Controls solves these problems using Schneider Electric’s LXM28 and LXM32 servo drives with Modicon M241 PLCs. These products help build compact, fast, and reliable machines for textile production.

What Makes Textile Machine Automation Challenging?

Textile machines need precise speed and position control. They often run in patterns and must stop and start quickly. If the motors are not timed properly, fabric quality suffers. Many traditional systems also take up too much space in control panels.
Machine makers want a system that:
  • Saves space
  • Reduces wiring
  • Runs multiple motors at once
  • Gives full control over speed and position

The Solution: LXM28, LXM32 Servo Drives + Modicon M241 PLC

Pima Controls uses Schneider Electric LXM28 and LXM32 servo drives for closed-loop motion control. These drives work with the Modicon M241 PLC, which runs the machine logic.

Closed-Loop Motion Control

The system checks motor position during every movement. This prevents drift and ensures high fabric quality.

Synchronized Control

You can run more than one motor at the same time. For example, looms and winders can stay in sync without using extra hardware.

Compact Control Panels

The LXM28 and M241 are small in size. This helps reduce the control panel footprint, giving machine builders more room.

Benefits of This Automation Setup

Using LXM28/LXM32 and M241 gives you these clear benefits:

  • Better Quality Output: Smooth, steady motion avoids machine jerks
  • Lower Panel Size: Compact products save panel space
  • Less Wiring: Ready-to-use cables and digital control reduce wiring time
  • Easy Programming: M241 works with SoMachine software for fast setup
  • Quick Start/Stop: Ideal for textile cycles that need fast response
  •  

Where Is This Used?

This solution fits well in machines like:
  • Looms
  • Winders
  • Reelers
  • Spinning machines
  • Fabric slitters
Textile OEMs prefer it because they can build smarter machines without making them bulky or slow.

Why Pima Controls?
