AX-50/100 controllers support 16 axes of motion. By using AX-50/100 controllers, customers will reduce development cost, decrease time-to-market and greatly increase their potential customer base through no need for special programming skills and ability to interact with any PLC. The controllers can easily be programmed in Microsoft Visual Studio or using RSLogix 5000 from Rockwell Automation. All AX controllers are EtherCAT masters and have built in support for a variety of servo drives and IO modules.
