VME321
Stepper Motor Controller with Onboard Amplifiers VMEbus
The VME321 is a cost-sensitive stepper motor controller 6U VMEbus board with amplifiers. Its rugged design features are ideal for extreme environments, ensuring a long, reliable service life.
The VME321 intelligent stepper motor controller with amplifiers is an ideal solution for all applications where stepper motors must be controlled with a maximum of flexibility and a minimum of overhead. The local processor handles all high-level commands to provide maximum control for both straightforward as well as very complex applications.
The VME321 is also available in 3U form factor and as a M-Module, PCI and CompactPCI (3U and 6U) product.
