Performance Motion Devices (PMD) has signed an agreement with electronics distributor DigiKey, marking an expansion of PMD’s distribution network. Through this agreement, DigiKey now supplies PMD’s Magellan, Juno, ION, Atlas and Prodigy families of motion control products and developer kits to users developing robotics and industrial-automation applications using motion-control technology.
