Electric alternatives for simple movements
Movement between 2 end positions
Flexible intermediate position (with IO-Link)
Pressing/clamping applications possible
Digital I/O for simple control and feedback
IO-Link control for added value functionality

The simplicity of pneumatics is now combined for the first time with the advantages of electric automation thanks to the Simplified Motion Series. These integrated drives are the perfect solution for all users who are looking for an electric alternative for very simple movement tasks, but don't want the commissioning process for traditional electric drive systems that can often be quite complex.
There is no need for any software since operation is simply based on the "plug and work" principle. Digital I/O (DIO) and IO-Link® are always automatically included – a product with two types of control as standard.
