PCIe-8338: EtherCAT PCIe Motion Controller

PCIe-8338

by ADLINK Technologies


ADLINK Technologies is pleased to announce the release of the PCIe-8338, the first PCIe motion controller card in ADLINK’s EtherCAT solution, delivering a competitive price with up to 70% savings on every Single Axis and seamless upgrade from existing ADLINK motion control systems to EtherCAT, with full APS Function Library support. ADLINK’s PCIe-8338 supports motion control of up to 64 axes and 10K points within determined cycle times, and is verified for interoperability with various EtherCAT servo drives and 3rd party EtherCAT slaves. PCIe-8338 EtherCAT board is powerful performance and synchronization control solution thanks to hHigh motion synchronization capability ≤ 1µS and 16-axis linear interpolation performance increased 20 to 200 times over conventional motion control. Benefiting from EtherCAT structural superiority, ADLINK’s Softmotion and application-ready function blocks, and API support, the PCIe-8338 provides time-deterministic control of automatic process, featuring high performance, easy development, intelligent management, and minimized total cost of ownership, perfect for users wishing to upgrade to EtherCAT-based industrial automation.
