DC motor positioning controller with additional benefits
There are additional connectivity options with maxon’s positioning controller, the EPOS4.
The addition of an expansion board now allows maxon positioning controller, the EPOS4, to be integrated into any EtherCAT network as a slave using the CoE standard (CAN application layer over EtherCAT). The EtherCAT card developed for this use can be combined with the EPOS4 controllers in a housing, as well as with all EPOS4 modules. The benefits widen the applications where compact positioning controllers are needed, for example where short cycle times are important in synchronized multi-axis systems.
EPOS4 controllers are suitable for controlling both brushed and brushless DC motors. They are known for their high power density and excellent value for money. For more information about maxon’s EPOS controllers, please visit epos.maxonmotor.com or tel. +61 2 9457 7477.
