Multi-axis motion controller
The art of synchronizing with precision.
With the powerful and programmable maxon multi-axis controllers, you can synchronize and position several axes with precision. In addition, you can execute jerk-limited motion profiles or cam disks.
Drive synchronization: With micrometer precision.
Robotic, analysis, and handling systems require control technology with increasingly higher precision. maxon motion controllers ensure the compact integration of a large number of energy-efficient drives, combined with highly dynamic controllers and a linked bus system.
This enables you to program complex motion sequences. The multi-axes controllers support various kinematics, such as Delta or Scara. They work autonomously or can be integrated into a superior system via CANopen or EtherCAT.
maxon motion control: Key information at a glance.
We offer solutions for equipment, systems, or machinery as well as for mobile applications or lightweight robotics.
We have structured our motion controllers in accordance with key parameters to help you find the appropriate maxon controller faster.

ApossIDE
Free development environment.
The Integrated Development Environment, ApossIDE, is a comprehensive, license-free automation software that enables application-oriented programming of all multi-axis controllers from maxon. This tool is used for programming, testing, and debugging motion control functions of all MACS devices. ApossIDE has a similar syntax to that of the widespread C programming language. For this reason, it is easy to learn. ApossIDE provides assistance in the effective programming of drive solutions and has been expanded to include highly powerful commands. Even extremely complex positioning and synchronization functions can be triggered using simple commands.
Motion Library
ZbMotion Software Library
The ZbMotion software library is a motion library that generates the motion profiles for independent and high-precision synchronized axis. The library consists of a trajectory generator that creates profiles for position and velocity commands. It calculates and generates jerk-limited and trapezoidal profiles, and has advanced functions, such as calculating the simultaneous arrival of multiple axes. Die ZbMotion library is based on C and can therefore be used by anyone with programming experience. The software is available in connection with the acontis EtherCAT-Stack and thus provides a complete solution for real-time communication and motion.
