The iBMD series is classified as an integrated drive servo motor that can be controlled in a master or standalone mode. EtherCAT and CANopen (CiA DS402) are offered as communication protocols, which can be daisy chained between each device. This internal PLC system can manage an entire machine cycle. Because of its internal programmability, users can create their own movement algorithm to allow complex trajectories. The programmability uses ST language of IEC61131 environment with additional motion function such as interpolated mode, gearing function, ECAM or capture. The series also offers successful representation of space optimization within the cabinet size and reduction of wiring work.
