Key Applications

The iXA4 is a part of the user-friendly Automation1 motion control platform, which includes the following:

Development software

Controls

Motor Drives

Fiber-optic HyperWire® communication bus

Better Motion. Better Control.

The iXA4 delivers better motion control to more machine builders and automation system developers.

Its efficient design is a perfect fit for contoured multi-axis motion control and point-to-point applications.

The embedded iSMC motion controller can control up to 12 axes of motion,

including onboard axes and those extended over the HyperWire motion bus.

Contoured applications such as laser cutting, laser welding and precision dispensing are all possible with the iXA4.

The iXA4 includes features such as Autofocus and velocity or torque control,

making it an ideal solution for fast point-to-point motion followed by placement and/or picking applications. 

Torque and force control also make iXA4 a great candidate for dynamic material testing systems.
