ACS Motion Control’s compact single-axis EtherCAT® Mini-Universal Drive Module, MDMst, is designed to meet the evolving control needs of applications using low-power, high-precision motion stages.
A Smarter Fit for Precision Motion
High-tech OEMs often face a dilemma: how to achieve premium performance from compact, low-power high-precision motion stages without resorting to oversized or overly complex servo drives. The MDMst was engineered to solve this challenge. Whether you’re working with Z-axis stages, compact linear motor stages, or direct-drive rotary stages, the MDMst delivers high-performance servo control in a compact footprint.
Expanded Capabilities for Real-World Use Cases
The latest iteration of the MDMst introduces dedicated general-purpose analog inputs, enabling support for a broader range of applications, including:
- Z Stage Autofocusing for wafer inspection
- Force-Controlled Bonding in semiconductor advanced packaging
- Force-Controlled Pick and Place for electronics manufacturing
These enhancements make the MDMst an ideal solution for OEMs and precision stage companies looking to build smarter, smaller, and more efficient machines—without compromising on accuracy or reliability.
Advanced Algorithms for Advanced Applications
The MDMst offers unique control algorithm options, such as ServoBoost, LearningBoost, and Autofocus, to further enhance motion performance and reduce development effort for a variety of high-tech equipment applications:
- Semiconductor inspection, metrology, and advanced packaging
- Electronics assembly and test equipment
- Laser microprocessing systems
- Genome sequencing platforms
Seamless Integration for SPiiPlus Platform Controlled Machines
The MDMst servo drive is part of the SPiiPlus Platform motion control ecosystem. It operates under any SPiiPlus Platform EtherCAT motion controller, which provides a unified development environment and simple configuration for all axes in the motion control system.
