Application Configurator for CCUs

Our Application configurator provides a large number of standardized, configurable software modules. It makes the process of configuring basic single-access application modules and complex multi-axis application modules significantly easier, and completely dispenses with the need for programming.

Configure rather than program, using our CCU (Configurable control unit)

  • Single-axis application modules: Configurable software modules for controlling single axes in various operating modes such as speed control, positioning, and phase-synchronous operation.
  • Multi-axis application modules: Configurable software modules for controlling complex motion sequences for stacker cranes, winding applications, and kinematic applications, for example.
