AMC releases a new series of EtherCAT drives

These new EtherCAT drives are available in panel mount versions, like the DPEANIU-015S400 or in PCB mount versions. One of the truly exciting options is our new DxM Technology (DeMultiplexed Motion). This gives us the ability to control up to 4 axes while using only one EtherCAT node. The first EtherCAT drive can be coupled with up to three CAN Open drives on a sub-network on a single mounting card. This DxM Technology helps save cost, since only one amplifier requires an EtherCAT chip. The additional axes use the lower cost CAN Open chip set, yet maintain an extremely high level of performance and speed.
Additional power levels for stand alone panel mount drives are also being developed; let us know your power requirements.
One of AMC's other great assets is the ability to customize their product offering to meet your particular requirements, whether that involves custom tuning, special functionality, custom connectors, or integrating your electronics and algorithms into a single or multi-axis amplifier product.
