Your advantages

Free choice of inverters
thanks to the integrated system bus, which allows you to connect the controllers to all types of inverters

Coordinate many axes
via a single controller that ensures intelligent interaction between all axes with a fast, synchronous system bus

Automate efficiently
thanks to the performance classes, which means you always have the right open-loop control at hand, from simple to high-end motion control

Coordinate multiple axes and drives perfectly and easily with each other

As a user of complex systems, you need to ensure that different motion sequences, multiple axes and therefore different drives interact precisely with each other. After all, the effectiveness of your production depends on it. To ensure the required intelligent coordination, you need control technology that is as intelligent as it is consistent.

The control cards from our controller hardware portfolio are precisely tailored to this requirement. As control cabinet installation devices, they are used wherever users have to realise centrally controlled applications.

Thanks to their simple handling and a large number of ready-made function modules, they ensure efficient implementation of motion functions. Their potential is particularly evident where movements across multiple axes need to be reliably and precisely synchronised. If the various motion axes in a system are connected via a fast, synchronous system bus, we recommend controlling all motion control tasks via a single controller. Our control technology is also ideally equipped for this case. Via an SBus or SBUSPLUS (system bus with onboard EtherCAT® interface), our controllers can process up to 64 axes, depending on the performance class. In addition, the integrated system bus allows connection to all inverter types from our portfolio.

You too can benefit from the outstanding performance characteristics of our control technology and realise the functional and economical automation of your systems and machines.

You have a choice of different performance stages, which ensure optimum open-loop control of all motion sequences depending on the requirements of your machine and automation:

  • Performance class standard DHx21B for use as a modular controller with motion control functions such as positioning, medium response times and max. 16 axes
  • Performance class advanced DHx41B for use as a module controller with high-end motion control functions such as electronic cam, cam unit and robotics, short response times and max. 16 axes
  • Performance class power UHX71B for use as a module controller or open-loop control for complete automation for demanding motion control and automation tasks, response times in the 1 ms range and max. 64 axes. The open-loop control system can optionally be expanded to include a second operating system with Windows 7 embedded.
