From $1,090.82In stockDiscontinued

Product Description

The Q173CPUN is a MELSEC‑Q Series motion control CPU designed for high‑performance multi‑axis applications. It supports up to 32 control axes via SSCNET, arranged as two lines with up to 16 axes per line, enabling scalable motion architectures across complex machines. This CPU integrates with the MELSEC‑Q platform for deterministic motion command execution and synchronized control. It conforms to global standards including UL, cUL, CE (EMC and RoHS), and KC (EMC), ensuring compliance in regulated environments. While the model has been discontinued with repair support scheduled to end in 2025/09, it remains a capable choice for maintaining existing installations, and Mitsubishi lists Q173DSCPU as the replacement. Typical use cases include coordinated multi‑axis positioning, interpolation, and high‑speed sequence control within industrial automation systems. Package contents and accessories depend on system configuration; SSCNET fiber cabling and servo amplifiers are required separately.
