Advantech Launches 4-Axis Stepping/Pulse-type Servo Motor Control Module for the ADAM-5550

Dec. 23, 2008
The Industrial Automation Group of Advantech introduces the ADAM-5240, a 4-axis stepping/pulse-type servo motor control module for use with the ADAM-5550 series PACs (Programmable Automation Controllers).  

The ADAM-5240 is fully integrated to fulfill general purpose motion applications.  It’s equipped with high-speed 4-axis motion control that simplifies stepping and pulse-type servo motor control.

Furthermore, the ADAM-5240 is embedded with an intelligent novaR MCX314-motion ASIC card which includes various motion control functions, such as 2/3-axis linear interpolation, 2-axis circular interpolation, programmable T/S-curve acceleration/deceleration rate, powerful position management functions, etc..  The ADAM-5240 performs these motion control functions without processor loading during driving.

For advanced applications, Advantech supplies Windows DLL drivers and user-friendly examples to decrease programming load.
