AEROTECH Automation1 XC6e Enhanced, High-Power PWM Servo Drive
Automation1 XC6e Enhanced, High-Power PWM Servo Drive
The Automation1 XC6e single-axis PWM servo motor drive brings precision motion control to your high-power applications. It offers all the benefits of our XC4e drive but with more power to move the largest payloads, so you’ll accelerate large, brushless servo motors faster and reach higher top speeds without sacrificing smooth motion. Plus, the XC6e can be configured and programmed with Automation1’s user-friendly Studio application and APIs. Compatible with brush, brushless, voice coil or stepper motors, the XC6e also easily controls servo, galvo and piezo motors.
