Electric Motion Control
Emerson’s portfolio provides the flexibility, durability, and connectivity for flexible, cost-effective performance.
Advanced motion control is necessary to achieve energy efficiency, optimized process, and equipment functionality. Emerson’s wide selection of variable frequency drives, linear electric actuators and Servo solutions can help you streamline configuration and achieve the data connectivity needed for more consistent, flexible, and sustainable manufacturing processes, while delivering peak efficiency, higher throughput. and cost savings at every stage of production.
Variable frequency drives (VFD) are electric motor controllers that deliver adjustable frequency and voltage. They can help reduce energy and operations costs by enabling motors to run at optimum speed, and are often used to control AC motors for pumps, fans, conveyors, and other applications. In machine applications, a modern VFD can provide the precise speed control usually associated with DC motors and drives, with much lower maintenance costs.
PACMotion VFDs from Emerson control flow by varying motor speed to match the load, which can greatly reduce your energy consumption and motor stress. They are extremely compact, and save space through smaller cabinet enclosures or through rugged designs where no cabinet is needed. You can seamlessly integrate PACMotion VFDs with controllers using field device management to provide data feedback that can improve processes and profitability in the application. processes

Servo motors and drives are selected for precise motor control, especially with detailed operations involving robotics and other finely controlled processing equipment. While valued for their fast acceleration and high accuracy, they also can be challenging to configure. PACMotion™ servo drives and motors from Emerson deliver the fast, highly precise motion required in demanding industrial applications. Their plug-and-play motor recognition and flexible integration features help speed startup and commissioning while the compact footprint allows easy integration into tight machine configurations.
Additionally, PACMotion servo drives connect to Emerson’s high-performance Rx3i EtherCAT motion controllers, adding networking and scalability to a feature-rich set of general motion application capabilities. Industry standard programming through PAC Machine Edition gives you the freedom to use the best language for your application. A common user interface, drag-and-drop editing, and a rich set of development tools enable easy programming, optimized resources, and improved application development efficiency.
