Aerotech Automation1 iXC4 Drive-Based Motion Controller

Motion. Control. Together.

The Automation1 iXC4 PWM servo motor drive with integrated

motion controller is two solutions in one: it’s capable of complete

machine control and provides sub-nanometer levels of servo

motor control. The powerful Automation1-iSMC motion controller

is loaded onto the same hardware that runs the drive, which in

turn manages the trajectory of up to 12 axes of control over the

HyperWire motion bus.

The iXC4 is the powerful center of your motion control architecture.

It has a full motion controller, connects to other Automation1

drives over HyperWire and connects to other automation devices

over EtherCAT, EtherNet/IPTM, Modbus TCP/IP or a TCP Socket

interface. Multi-axis Part-Speed PSO enables precision control of

your industrial laser or process tool synchronized with your motion

trajectory.
