PacDrive 3 LMC Eco / Pro / Pro 2

Product Description

High performance motion controller

The PacDrive 3 LMC controllers, Eco and Pro2 series, provide a scalable hardware platform and scalable performance for synchronising up to 130 servo axes with a 1 msec network update rate and support for up to 255 virtual axes. They integrate PLC, HMI interfaces, and IT functionalities into a single hardware platform, for complete automation solutions including robotics and multicarrier.
