Applications
Moog Animatics offers the most advanced, highly integrated automation solutions in the industry and supports a wide range of applications.
Minimum Programming. Maximum Capabilities.
Moog Animatics' SmartMotor™ is capable of being a master controller to both other SmartMotor™ servos and other devices. As a result, the motors can often become a replacement to PLCs or other controllers in a system. At a minimum, when the SmartMotor™ is added to an existing system as an extension to a machine design, it may only require minimal hand shaking with the main controller while independently maintaining its own subsystem control. In sum, the SmartMotor™ offers maximum capabilities while reducing costs and build time, thanks to a minimal need for programming and wiring.

SmartMotor™ CNC Plasma Cutter Demo
This video showcases the SmartMotor™ integrated servo driving a CNC plasma cutter creating simple and complex shapes. Even though this gantry is geared for smooth, rapid traverse, nothing is spared for high speed (greater than 1500 inches per minute) intricate cutting as well. Notice there is no rounding of corners while providing tight fast precision cuts. Watch our demonstration video to learn more.
