Specialists offer value to OEM machine builders using SynqNet Network tools in multi-axis, high-performance motion applications 

Danaher Motion Performance Controls (MEI) announces that Korean control system specialists, Convex, has become a member of the SynqNet Partner Program. 

The partnership promises to offer value to OEM machine builders using SynqNet Network tools in multi-axis, high-performance motion applications. The SynqNet Partner Program is available to qualified vendors such as Convex that develop and distribute complementary, commercially available products that seamlessly integrate with SynqNet network products (controllers, drives, motors, I/Os) and ensure ongoing compatibility for growth.

“We are deeply pleased to join the SynqNet network with our Servo Drive,” says Mr. Eun Seok Kim, Precision Control Center Director, Convex. “Motion networks based on Ethernet technology have proven significant in the Korean market as demands for real-time control dictate.”

“In recent years, we have experienced increased demand for network motion systems with simple cabling and cost savings in industrial automation equipment manufacturing,” he states. “In response to this demand, we developed the SynqNet Servo Drive for small and medium semiconductor equipment manufacturers which has allowed us to enter the high-end market and compete with Japanese networks, effectively. We plan to establish this drive as ‘the standard’ for high-performance motion control throughout Korea, and are looking forward to international market expansion in 2009.”

”We are delighted to welcome Convex to the SynqNet partner community,” says Ross McMillan, Director of Engineering, Danaher Motion Performance Controls.  “The partnership enables us to offer OEMs with affordable, low-power, single and multi-axis drive platforms to support their high-performance and cost-critical motion system applications.”
