Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the PMC-3000 is unavailable or discontinued, the following models may serve as functional equivalents depending on your system configuration. Always verify firmware version and axis count compatibility before substitution.
- FAGOR 8070-OL-ICU — Base interpolator unit without RS serial option; requires RS adapter board
- FAGOR CN55-10U-OL-B4S1 — Predecessor model, compatible with 8070 OL architecture, 10-axis
- FAGOR CN60-10U-OL-B4S1-RS — Mid-generation equivalent with identical axis/spindle configuration
- FAGOR 8065-OL-ICU-RS — Downgrade option for systems not requiring full 8070 feature set
- FAGOR PMC-2000 — Previous generation; limited to 6 axes, partial firmware compatibility
Note: Cross-compatibility must be confirmed with FAGOR Automation or Konmask technical support before installation.

Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the PMC-3000 / CN70-10U-OL-B4S1-RS-4 is the correct module for your application:
- ✅ Your machine uses FAGOR 8070 Open CNC (OL) architecture
- ✅ You require up to 10 controlled axes simultaneously
- ✅ Your system includes up to 4 spindle channels
- ✅ Serial communication via RS-422 or RS-485 is required
- ✅ You need a drop-in replacement maintaining existing firmware and PLC programs
- ⚠️ If your system uses fewer than 6 axes, consider the PMC-2000 or 8065-OL-ICU-RS for cost optimization
- ⚠️ If RS serial is not required, the 8070-OL-ICU (non-RS) variant may reduce cost

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can the PMC-3000 replace an 8070-OL-ICU without the RS suffix?
A: Yes, the PMC-3000 (8070-OL-ICU-RS) is a superset of the non-RS variant. It adds RS serial capability and is backward compatible in all other respects.
Q: Is the CN70-10U-OL-B4S1-RS-4 the same as the PMC-3000?
A: Yes. CN70-10U-OL-B4S1-RS-4 is the FAGOR internal configuration code for the PMC-3000 with 10-axis, 4-spindle, RS serial, and OL architecture options.
Q: Can I use a PMC-2000 as a replacement?
A: Only for systems with 6 or fewer axes and no RS serial requirement. Firmware and PLC program migration will be required.
Q: Do you provide installation support?
A: Konmask provides pre-sales technical consultation. For on-site installation, we recommend engaging a certified FAGOR service partner.
Q: What is the lead time?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. Out-of-stock items typically have a 2–6 week lead time depending on sourcing channel.
