Greetings all,
Last week I was up in Richmond VA for training on a servo system, I just want to put on my 2 cents if anyone is looking for a new system, I can recommend this one.

The system I have is older but still very good and solid, I have two, one is a 9 axis the other is 11 axis, years ago they bought the Siemens S5 technology (this is what I have) it has a S5 PLC embedded in one of the option cards, so its just like programming a S5 when you are writing the program.
The new technology uses CoDeSys as the embedded PLC, this brings me to the other thing that I would like to discuss, that software is un....real, you can do anything.
I don’t think they are cheap, but I can testify that they have very good service and a very good product, they also have a small servo that has the drive embedded inside it...that was cool it was a stand a lone system that could be chained to others.
Just wanted to share...
