• Influencing the drive-integrated positioning control (part program)
• Input/output of binary signals (software I/O)

In order to make you an offer, we need manufacturer and CPU type of the controller as well as name and version number of the programming system you use.

*This list is continuously being extended.

The DriveServer makes drive integration into automation systems easier. The DriveServer supplies PC-based control systems with the data of the connected drives. Access to the drives is carried out via the standardized OPC interface. The principle is similar to the Windows printer drivers: the manufacturer supplies the hardware and a floppy disk with the software driver of the device. After installation all application programs – drive tools, visualization and process data acquisition systems etc. – can access the device and all its functions.

ESR Pollmeier has participated in the development of this concept. The DriveServer OPC server is available for all digital servo drives by ESR (e. g. for Profibus DP, CANopen, Interbus or TCP/IP access via Ethernet).
