TECHNOSOFT Motion Control Technology  
 

IM23x - Intelligent Motor Series

IM231, IM232 and IM233 are a family of the TECHNOSOFT intelligent brushless motors combining motion controller, drive and motor in a single package, operated from a 12-48 V power supply.

The IM23x series of motors represent cost effective, compact solutions particularly adapted to integrated intelligence or distributed motion control applications.

Targeted for medium to high volume applications, the IM23x are based on a cost-optimised design, embedding all the basic motion control functions inside the motor itself, together with basic local digital and analog I/O signals.

General Features:
