MC-4018-4X-270 Series 4-Axis Brushless Motor Controller

4-Axis Brushless Motor Controller

This unit provides four axes of high-voltage, digital motor control in a compact, lightweight, militarized package.  The standard controller includes two independent 1553 interfaces, isolated RS-422 bus, four encoder interfaces, solenoid controls, plus numerous discrete inputs and outputs.  A very high level of fault detection and fault isolation supports aggressive reliability goals, suitable for modern airborne and ground applications.  The advanced space vector modulation algorithms used in the motor controls provide optimum performance for new or existing systems with outstanding power densities.
