Product features

The AX-8 series motion control PAC supports EtherCAT (Ethernet Control Automation

Technology) control interface, which can be operated with libraries.

It supports a minimum synchronization period of 250 microseconds, and 64 axes and 32 stations

in 1 millisecond.

AX-8 series provides 35 kinds of homing methods, point-to point position control, speed control,

torque control, multi-axis interpolation, Robot and CNC etc.

The complete motion control functions of the AX-8 series products are able to meet the needs of

the diverse industry. This product optimally integrates the operations of multi-axis synchronous

motion control, enabling easier assembly, better stability, and more flexible expansion capabilities.

This is the one and only choice for industrial upgrading.

How to use this manual

You can use this manual as a reference when using the AX-8 series motion control PAC, which

contains information about installation, setting, and instructions on how to use and maintain the

product.
