Physik Instrumente has launched a new generation of control unit for positioning systems using piezo actuators. The control unit is designed for the Q-Motion and PiezoMike series of actuators.
The main advantage is the extension of the interface with TCP/IP (Ethernet) and the possibility to expand the 4 parallel channels up to 64 multiplexed channels.
In addition to the MikroMove PI software, a wide range of programming tools and libraries for LabVIEW, C, C++, MATLAB, Python environments are traditionally available for the controller.
