Controllers & Drivers
Control units for precise positioning in motion
Controllers and drivers play a vital role in controlling a motion application and or system. Choosing the correct combination depends on several factors such as number of axes to control, the industrial environment, user interface and the digital communication needed. Options for drive cards are also available for higher integration into a customer’s system.
The software is standardized so any combination of drive and controller is possible. It is user-friendly and supports third-party software.
We are happy to assist you with custom requests!
