STMicroelectronics is working with maxon, a member of the ST Partner Program, to accelerate the design of robotics applications and industrial servo drives. The companies will demonstrate a jointly developed servo control kit at sps 2019 trade show in Nuremberg, November 26-28 (Booth 10.1/138).

maxon is known for its precision DC drives. maxon offers standard and customised products as well as completely bespoke systems.

High power drive users can now receive ready-made drive cabinet systems in as little as one week for emergency breakdowns, following the release of Control Techniques’ DFS series of freestanding drives.

The new TECDrive IP66 VSD offers efficiency and motor control for demanding environments.

Control Techniques has launched a free, five-year warranty for its Commander range of general-purpose drives.

FUJI Electric has launched the multi-purpose FRENIC-Ace and FRENIC-Mini Variable Speed Drives (VSD), which are intended for general purpose applications as well as special applications such as solar pumping, heavy duty crane & hoist, HVAC and conveyor.

Applied Motion Products Inc. has launched a Power over Ethernet (PoE) enabled integrated miniature microstepping motor package that combines a closed-loop digital drive, feedback encoder and an Ethernet-supported motion controller as a single-cable positioning solution.

B&R has added three new model-based control functions for its ACOPOS P3 servo drive. The functions are available in B&R's Automation Studio engineering environment and allow for more precise control performance that increases machine productivity and speed.
