Decentral Servo Drives from AMK
Instead of using a specially made hybrid cable, AMK decided on a system with a separate power supply and fast communication via real-time Ethernet. Multifunctional I/Os in each servo controller are available for sensors and actuators in the machine. The AMK system does not require an expensive distributor box so that additional field bus components can be looped in at any time and any place in the machine. This makes it ideal for use in linear axes or on a carrousel.
