TF5500 | TwinCAT 3 MC3 Base

The repository demonstrates basic MC3 scenarios such as gearing, PTP movements, and error management in coupled axes. It is suitable for understanding typical motion sequences, state machines, and the practical application of core MC3 modules.

• MC3 Version 4.0.6
• https://github.com/Beckhoff/TF5500_Samples

TF5550 | TwinCAT 3 MC3 Camming

This repository focuses on axis couplings using cam plates, with examples of MC_CamIn, cam plate changes, and various activation strategies during motion. This shows how nonlinear couplings between master and slave axes are configured, tested, and switched in MC3.

• MC3 Version 4.0.6

TF5560 | TwinCAT 3 MC3 Fluid Power

The focus here is on FluidPower applications, particularly valve characterization and reading/writing characteristic curves to CSV files. The samples illustrate the workflow for the automatic measurement of valve characteristic curves.

• MC3 Version 4.0.6
