Space-saving Digital Servo Drives

June 6, 2008
The AX5000 Servo Drive series is available in single- or multi-channel form to support fast, dynamic positioning tasks, with an EtherCAT communication system to facilitate interfacing with PC-based control technology. 

A wide range of motor types can be connected to the AX5000. Motors of different size and type can be connected without additional measures. Examples include synchronous, linear, torque and asynchronous motors. The multi-feedback interface supports all common standards. It was developed specifically for use with the EtherCAT real-time Ethernet system, leading to multiple end-user benefits, says the vendor, including short cycle time, synchronicity and simultaneity.
