AKD® PDMM 3-In-1: Motion Controller, PLC and Servo Drive in One
AKD PDMM combines all functions in a single compact device, and delivers high performance in the smallest of spaces.
As a central, multi-axis controller, the AKD PDMM is perfectly suited for controlling single and multi-axis drives with increased demands. Supplied in two performance categories, the AKD PDMM (Programmable Drive Multi Master) controls 10 or more axes* at 1-ms cycle time in the 800 MHz version, 20 axes or more* in the 1.2-GHz version, and also offers PLC functionality without an additional motion controller. You therefore save up to 30% on space in your switch cabinet, reduce wiring complexity, and lower machine costs. The Kollmorgen Automation Suite (KAS) development environment assists you with programming and reduces development times considerably – irrespective of whether it is a single-axis drive or a drive system with 50 axes.
* Maximum axis count depends on motion/automation complexity and performance.
