The "PLC Direct Access AE-LINK Motion Controller PI Series" does not require a positioning unit for the PLC to use the NC positioning function of the AE-LINK compatible driver software. Additionally, by using the motion program on the PI side, there is no need to directly write motion-related descriptions in the ladder program, which reduces concerns about the ladder program. The motion program built into the PI is executed while accessing the PLC's data registers. Motor control is performed through operations on the PLC's data registers.

By creating a large-diameter hollow in the rotor, the torque decreases; however, we have designed it using winding technology and precision assembly technology to maximize the torque. We offer two types of shaft shapes: a shaft with a mounting base (V type) and a shaft with a tapped hole (H type). We will propose or select the most suitable driver for your applications and driving conditions, including pulse input types and AE-LINK (built-in controller) drivers.
