GE FANUC PowerMate SERVO
Description
The GE FANUC PowerMate is a multi-axis servo controller. These controllers are used as stand-alone or networked to solve various motion applications. While each PowerMate is capable of performing a specific task(s), there are applications that are unique and require more complex motion control. This course is based on a link feeder application in order to provide a solid foundation of the PowerMate sub-systems both hardware and software.
