Integrated Axis Controller (IAC)

Our high-response valves with integrated digital axis controller actively control the axes independently of the machine control by using separate motion functionality and process the data of various sensors that can be connected directly.

The compact modules are based on proven proportional and high-response valves and offer a wide variety of axis controller functions in addition to easy integration in the control concept.

IAC-Multi-Ethernet - open, scalable and easy-to-use

IAC-Multi-Ethernet axis controllers have position, pressure, and alternating control capability. The IAC-Multi-Ethernet platform allows machine manufacturers to freely choose from among key Ethernet protocols such as sercos, EtherCAT, Ethernet IP, PROFINET RT and Varan. This, in turn, makes it possible for designers to establish a flexible connection to the higher-level control systems of many different manufacturers. The integrated axis controller facilitates the direct connection of a wide variety of sensors via simple and proven M12 connection technology. In line with our best-in-class motion control concept, the three most important performance requirements are to ensure a open, scalable and easy-to-use design.
