MC4Unt EtherCAT Master Motion Controller
MC4Unt
EtherCAT Master Motion Controller with up to 8 Integrated Servo Drives

The MC4Unt Control Module is a modular, configurable control system consisting of a motion controller, power supply, and drives. It is designed to meet the needs of OEMs with demanding multi-axis motion control applications. Its unique multi-processor architecture leverages powerful profile generation and servo control algorithms to maximize motion system performance. At the same time, its universal servo drive technology allows the system designer to control almost any type of motor or stage. As an EtherCAT master, it controls any ACS products within the SPiiPlus Platform and 3rd party EtherCAT products.
