The GE IC800SSI228RD2-EE is a modular motion controller from GE’s VersaMax Nano series, engineered for precision positioning in small-scale automation systems. This 32-bit controller combines 2-axis servo control with 28 digital I/O points, achieving ±0.01mm repeatability in pick-and-place applications. The IC800SSI228RD2-EE features integrated RS-485 and Ethernet/IP connectivity, enabling synchronization with up to 8 robotic arms in conveyor-based packaging lines.
Designed for GE’s QuickPanel+ HMI integration, this controller supports CANopen and MODBUS RTU protocols simultaneously, making it ideal for retrofitting legacy machinery. The IC800SSI228RD2-EE operates at -20°C to +60°C with 95% non-condensing humidity tolerance, suitable for food processing cleanrooms. Its compact 90mm x 70mm footprint allows direct mounting on DIN rails alongside variable frequency drives in control cabinets.

Key Features and Advantages:
Multi-protocol flexibility: The IC800SSI228RD2-EE bridges legacy MODBUS devices with modern Ethernet/IP networks, enabling smooth integration of 1990s-era presses into Industry 4.0 systems. Its dual-axis interpolation supports circular and helical motion paths for CNC engraving machines.
Space-efficient design: Combines motion control and discrete I/O in one unit, reducing cabinet space by 60% compared to traditional PLC+drive setups. The builtin PID autotune compensates for mechanical backlash in 3D printer applications.
Energy monitoring: Integrated power consumption tracking helps optimize motor efficiency in textile winding machines. The controller’s 500μs scan time ensures precise synchronization between filling heads and capping stations in liquid packaging lines.
Application Areas:
The GE IC800SSI228RD2-EE excels in:
- Semiconductor Handling: Wafer transfer robot control
- Pharmaceuticals: Blister packaging machine coordination
- Automotive: Window regulator testing rigs
- Logistics: Compact sorting conveyor synchronization
In glass tempering systems, this controller manages precise temperature-dependent speed profiles for conveyor belts. Small batch manufacturers leverage its recipe management for rapid changeovers between product sizes. The IP20 protection enables deployment in controlled environments like medical device assembly cleanrooms.

Installation and Maintenance:
Installation preparation: Before mounting the IC800SSI228RD2-EE, verify DIN rail spacing (≥35mm between modules) and ensure proper grounding (≤4Ω resistance). Use shielded CAT5e cables for Ethernet connections in environments with VFD interference.
Maintenance recommendations: Perform axis calibration quarterly using MotionWorks Pro software. Clean ventilation slots annually with dry compressed air (≤0.3MPa pressure). Replace backup lithium battery (CR2032) every 5 years to maintain program retention during power loss.
