Industrial Ethernet and Fieldbus Interfaces
Based upon Servo Drives New Generation, TrioDrive D/xS and MidiDrive D/xS servo drives, we offer drive systems specially optimized for use in automation networks. As a standard, they are equipped with Industrial Ethernet or a fieldbus interface, e. g. for connection to a higher-level controller or a PC.
Depending on the servo drive family, the following Ethernet or fieldbus interfaces are available:
- EtherCAT
- Profinet
- Ethernet TCP/IP
- CANopen
- Profibus DP
- Modbus
The DRIVECOM profile 22 is used for data exchange with all interfaces listed here.
