Made in Japan
Manufacturer:ORIENTAL MOTOR CO., LTD.
Model: AZ Series Multi-axis Driver

Main features of multi-axis drivers

Three types of interfaces

We offer products compatible with EtherCAT, MECHATROLINK-Ⅲ, and SSCNETⅢ/H.

  • * SSCNETⅢ/H is a registered trademark of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation.
  • * MECHATROLINK is a registered trademark of the MECHATROLINK Association.
  • * EtherCAT® is a patented technology licensed from Beckhoff Automation GmbH (Germany) and is a registered trademark.

Reduced wiring and costs

Multiple axes can be controlled with one driver.

Multi-axis driver that can directly connect to a higher-level network and control up to four axes simultaneously

More compact and space-saving than lining up single-axis drivers (2-axis type, 4-axis type)

This saves installation space compared to lining up network-compatible single-axis drivers.

Compact and space-saving

Support software available

Easily control from a PC using the support software MEXE02

By using the support software MEXE02, you can set and edit operation data and various parameters, as well as perform teaching and monitor various statuses.

A variety of functions provide comprehensive support from start-up to maintenance

We provide functions that are useful for wiring checks and test runs.

  • Setting and saving operation data
  • I/O Monitor
  • Teaching/Remote Operation
We provide functions that are useful for adjusting motor operation after the equipment is installed.
  • Waveform Monitor

We provide functions that are useful for diagnosing problems and for maintenance after operations have started.

  • Alarm Monitor
  • Unit Information Monitor
  • Status Monitor

Can be combined with a variety of motors and mechanisms

The products that can be connected to the multi-axis driver are as follows.

Motor (DC power input)

Series nameProduct image (representative example)overview
αSTEP
AZ series
AZ SeriesThe motor is equipped with an ABZO sensor, which shortens the return-to-origin time and achieves control without the need for an external sensor.

The lineup ranges from 20mm to 60mm, and various geared types are also available.

Electric actuator (DC power input)

This is an electric actuator equipped with the αSTEP AZ series.

Series nameProduct image (representative example)overview
Electric slider
EZS series
AZ Series Multi-axis DriverThe slider section is available in two types: straight and folded.

The simple dustproof structure using stainless steel sheet prevents the intrusion of foreign matter and suppresses dust generation.

Electric slider
EZS series
clean room compatible
EZS series, clean room compatibleWhile maintaining the same functionality and performance as the EZS series, this product uses low-dust generation clean grease for the ball screws, guides, and bearings, making it compatible with clean rooms (ISO class 3).
Electric slider
EAS series
EAS SeriesThe slider section is available in two types: straight and folded.
Electric cylinder

* We have prepared the ESI file required when connecting EtherCAT slave products to our driver.
Please download it from the product details page. (Login is required to download.)

Please note

A dedicated connection cable (sold separately) is required to connect the multi-axis driver to the motor/electric actuator .
Be sure to prepare the same number of cables as the number of axes of the motor/electric actuator to be connected.
