1.Introduction In production lines, field installations, and large multi-axis machines, one of the most time-consuming and error-prone tasks is getting a drive ready to run. Traditionally, each new or replacement unit has to be connected to a PC, opened in a configuration tool, set up, tuned, and only then put into service. This works well [...]

A Gripper-Scissor End Effector powered by Technosoft Micro4804 MZ-CAN Drives In agricultural robotics, every gram and cubic centimeter counts. A robotic arm working among delicate crops must combine dexterity and precision with a light, compact structure - harder still once intelligence must be embedded directly in the end effector. A company developing a collaborative 7-DoF [...]

While Technosoft drives and intelligent motors are capable of standalone operation using the built-in Technosoft Motion Language (TML). They are also designed to be fully integrated into custom software systems. Developers who need to send live commands to drives from a PC can achieve this using the TML_LIB motion control library. This library acts as [...]

  Introduction The logger is one of the graphical tools available in EasyMotion Studio II, its main function is recording the data points of any variable of the drive with the best possible precision. Why would I need to use the Logger? Technosoft drives have two main control loops: The Fast loop and the Slow [...]

Can EasyMotion Studio software customize control panels with user-defined parameters and indicators for multiple drives in a CAN network? The short answer is yes - and it does so in a way that significantly simplifies system control, monitoring, and debugging across complex motion networks. EasyMotion Studio II provides a highly flexible environment where engineers can [...]

Introduction Technosoft has been designing and manufacturing intelligent drives for over 30 years. During that time, our products have found their way into countless industrial applications, many of which are still running reliably today. But technology moves forward, and at some point, the question comes up: can I upgrade my existing project to a newer [...]

Introduction Precise coordination of multiple axes is essential in motor control applications that involve complex motion profiles. From robotics to CNC machinery, synchronized multi-axis control ensures a stable operation and prevents motor drift. Technosoft drives are engineered to offer a robust multi-axis synchronization capability through standard communication protocols such as CANopen/TMLCAN and EtherCAT, configurable through [...]

 Technosoft drives enable the user to create machineries with multiple axis, without needing an external master to control them. Using EasyMotion Studio II, the user can create complex motion programs, which can perform difficult tasks.   Internal trajectory generation The drive does not merely follow a stream of position points sent by a master. Instead, [...]

Introduction In the automation industry, motors must work together to perform specific movements under certain mechanical conditions, which would otherwise be impossible to achieve by a single axis. Most often than not, multiple axes (drive + motor combination) are needed especially in factories (e.g.: plastic bottle industry, packaging industry, etc.), or in the medical field [...]

Introduction   In many motion control applications, handling high-inertia loads presents a significant challenge. Rapid starts or abrupt stops can introduce mechanical stress, vibrations, and excessive wear on the system, leading to reduced performance and increased maintenance costs. To address these challenges, Technosoft drives feature advanced trajectory generation algorithms, including the S-curve profile, which allows [...]
