Amherst, N.Y.. — API Motion’s APImate v. 3.1 control software is used for program development, setup, and optimization of the company’s intelligent, programmable servo drives. The program contains over 100 new features, including precomputed macros for commonly used motion control functions and user-definable expressions called links. Macros can execute up to 100 times faster than traditional macros, enabling faster, more accurate machine operations. Links are continuously evaluated and updated as a background task, so the program statements that utilize them can execute significantly faster. Other new features include electronic gearing, lineshafting, and camming to enable simplification of machine mechanics.
