Motion control technology is the backbone of modern industrial equipment design, enhancing productivity, reducing human error, and opening the door to advanced automation and innovation. In industrial settings, precise motion control systems ensure consistent and accurate automation of production processes, accelerating throughput while reducing defects and waste. Precision motion control is vital for the packaging, food and beverage, plastics, machine tools, metal cutting, textile industries, and others. In fact, motion control is at the core of industrial robotics, where precise motion is essential for various positioning, cutting, and movement activities. PMD’s wide range of products, including ICs, modules, and boards, excel at high-precision position, velocity, and torque control. Our motion control portfolio is uniquely designed to help you create the high-performance, reliable, and scalable industrial machines that drive your business forward.
