Task:

Task for MOTRON was developing an universal, cost-sensitive control for medical devices.

This includes various interfaces, motor drivers and position sensing systems. Furthermore, motor run-of-hand-movable parts, control of dc motors with position sensing and controlling external motor driver.

Solution:

All modules are optimized for medical use now and are ideal for tasks that require distributed intelligence. The CAN interface for exchanging data in real time is opto-isolated.

Same basic features but different software functions and various input and output facilities allow the desired adjustments.

Due to this modular design new solutions can be expanded or upgraded easily.
