Drive Technology – Starting, controlling and positioning with standard drives

Drive technology and automation technology grow closer together every day. Simple positioning tasks are becoming more and more automated, and low-cost, efficient local control is gaining in importance. Examples are manual feeding of raw material, transport of in-process products from one machine to the next processing unit, or simple handling tasks such as turning a material over.

Your benefits

• Ideal for simple and economic positioning tasks
• Reliable operation due to the small number of clearly traceable parameters
• Drive tasks can be easily and directly connected to the sensor and control functions
• Cost-effective and efficient:
  One control concept instead of mixing machine control and positioning control

Applications

The Micro Automation Sets for drive technology can be applied for transport systems, mechanical engineering and infrastructure among other things.
