Accelnet^PLUS Module (AEM/APM)
Compact, high-performance servo drives with advanced FPGA technology and comprehensive fieldbus connectivity
The Accelnet^PLUS Module series delivers exceptional performance and versatility in an ultra-compact 76.3 x 58.2 x 20.5 mm form factor. Advanced FPGA technology significantly reduces cost per node in multi-axis systems while supporting comprehensive fieldbus connectivity including EtherCAT, CANopen, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus-TCP. These DC-powered drives provide precise position, velocity, and torque control for brushless, brush, linear, and voice coil motors through multiple command interfaces including analog, PWM, and step/direction. High-speed programmable digital I/O and support for various encoder types ensure seamless integration into demanding automation applications.
