MDX+ series: Low-voltage integrated servo system 20% smaller than standalone

April 4, 2024

Applied Motion Products introduces the MDX+ series, a family of low-voltage servo systems that integrate a servo drive, motor, and encoder into one package. Solutions with 100/200/400/550W power output are available. The MDX+ product line supports pulse train-based control methods (Pulse/Direction, CW/CCW, encoder following), RS-485, CANopen, and EtherCAT. It also offers packages with electromagnetic brakes to meet the safety requirements of today's industries and will soon provide STO. The MDX+ series is an ideal solution for manufacturers in logistics, AGV, medical, semiconductor, and solar industries, among many others.

The MDX+ series is designed to be small and compact, providing a smaller yet equally capable solution compared to stand-alone motor and drive systems. It is ideal for applications with limited installation space, and its form factor is at least 20% smaller than that of standalone solutions.

The MDX+ servo drive is debugged by Luna software. It is meant to assist users with configuration, tuning, and troubleshooting the MDX+ family. The software and the drive are connected via USB for fast and reliable communication.
