Outputs signals can switch on the fly that is can operate when the axes are in motion.
The major benefit of the AMC E is the way it produces smooth, accurate and quiet machine operation thus giving precise parts, prolonging tool and machine life.
It gives the ability to use a wide range of part generation and machine control software, we can even customise the control to suit your software, if you require.
The control can be used with a wide range of motors and motor drives.
NEE can supply AMC board sets separately, or as an integrated system in an enclosure at very competitive prices.
Numerous special options are available to meet the demands of a wide range of applications.
