Motor controller: All about the drylin® dryve D1

The drylin® dryve D1 is the advanced motor controller created by igus® to be used with EC/BLDC, stepper and DC motors. It was designed to solve issues such as long commissioning times and communication troubles within drive systems. With its quick and easy setup via any web browser and its popular CANopen and Modbus TCP protocols, it is an obvious choice for many applications – whether industrial or local.

The drylin® delta robot on tour

At the start of 2019, igus® embarked on a new journey with the newly-released drylin® delta robot in order to reach as many customers across as many industries as possible. Each tour involved a demonstration of the delta robot on the premises of each requesting customer.

How do we test the articulated robot ?
