Introduction
PMC products represent state-of-the-art developments and manufacturing. They are tested
prior to delivery to ensure operating safety and reliability.
The products may only be used in the manner that is defined as appropriate. If they are used

Areas of Use and Application
Drive controllers made by PMC are designed to control electrical motors and monitor their
operation. Control and monitoring of the motors may require additional sensors and
actors.
Note: The drive controllers may only be used with the accessories and parts specified in
this document. If a component has not been specifically named, then it may not be either
mounted or connected. The same applies to cables and lines. Operation is only permitted
in the specified configurations and combinations of components using the software and
firmware as specified.
Every drive controller has to be programmed before commissioning, making it possible for
the motor to execute the specific functions of an application. The drive controllers have been
developed for use in single- and multiaxis drive and control tasks.
To ensure an application-specific use, the drive controllers are available with different drive
power and different interfaces.
Typical applications of the drive controllers include:
»
handling and mounting systems,
»
packaging and food machines,
»
printing and paper processing machines and
»
machine tools.
