Distributed Motion Control Solutions

Advantech offers a range of distributed motion control solutions that include its proprietary motion control network, AMONet (Advantech Motion Network), and Ethernet Control Automation Technology (EtherCAT) solutions.

EtherCAT Master Cards

Advantech provides EtherCAT PCI and PCIe master cards with support for up to 64 axes and numerous I/O for motion control applications. With enhanced I/O capabilities, these master cards enable the precise synchronization of multiple axes and support high-speed data transmissions.
EtherCAT Slave Modules

Advantech offers a variety of distributed I/O and motion control EtherCAT slave modules, such as isolated digital input, isolated digital output, photoMOS relay output, relay contact, analog input/output, pulse output, and junction modules, to satisfy diverse control application needs.
AMONet

The AMONet RS-485 series of distributed motion control products are categorized as Slave Modules and Master Cards. The AMAX-1220/1240/2240 series are used to increase the number of axes for distributed motion control networks; the AMAX-1750/2750 series extend the digital I/O capacity, each digital input module reduces wiring between driver and controller. The Master Card is installed in the host PC, the PCI-1202U and the PCM-3202P master cards collect and publish the information to the host PC.
