MDrivePlus Breaking Ground


Intelligent Motion Systems (IMS), pioneer of Integrated Motor+Electronics with its groundbreaking MDrive introduced in the late 1990s, is leading the way once again with its revolutionary MDrivePlus line built on a patented advanced motion/machine control chip for expanded functions and capabilities, and enhanced performance.

MDrivePlus' advanced integrated motion technology is delivered by the patented M3000 motion control system-on-a-chip, from IMS sister company System Semiconductor, improving motor performance, increasing functionality, expanding communications and making possible a wider range of frame size offerings. Drive voltage ranges have expanded to include +12 to +75 VDC and 120 and 240 VAC. A robust cast aluminum heat sink has been introduced along with other chemical resistant materials used in the housing, and interface to standard industrial circular connectors and cordsets is now available.

Compact and powerful, MDrivePlus products provide a reliable, cost-effective solution for a large range of brushless motor applications. Reducing system cost, design and assembly time, MDrivePlus are well suited for applications in packaging, robotics, medical instruments, assembly, semiconductor manufacturing, engraving, inspection and pick-and-place.

From IMS, the innovation leader in motors, drives and controls. Delivering products and support worldwide for 20 years. Our commitment is to Excellence in Motion(TM).
