Drive specialist maxon is launching the next generation of motion controllers with its MiniMACS6-AMP-4/50/10.

The controller is used wherever PLC solutions are too expensive or cannot meet customer-specific requirements.
maxon’s new multi-axis controller, the MiniMACS6-AMP-4/50/10, offers control of up to six DC motors or four BLDC motors (up to 540 W continuous output power and 1.6 kW peak output power). The controller is an economical and compact solution for system designers who develop autonomous robots or shuttle systems.
The new multi-axis solution is programmable with the ApossIDE automation software and the license-free Motion Control Library (written in C). Integrated bus interfaces enable efficient data exchange with higher-level controllers. It is also possible to run complete process sequences autonomously, without a PLC or PC.
The MiniMACS6-AMP-4/50/10 will be available in early 2021.
