NPMpm Servo Drive Module Works Like Linear Drive Without Drawbacks
Aug. 12, 2015
Related To: ACS Motion Control
The NPMpm Series of EtherCAT servo drive modules provide motion performance that was previously only achievable using linear drives, without the drawbacks of such linear drives. The drives are significantly smaller, much more efficient, produce less heat dissipation, are better protected, and lower in cost.
The NPMpm is a slave that runs under any ACS EtherCAT masters. The type of drive has already been proven successful in the most demanding applications of wafer metrology & inspection, FPD inspection, and ultra-precision machining for processing of optical components.
