Integrated positioning drive
16 June 2016
Festo’s EMCA positioning drive, consists of a maintenance-free and wear-resistant brushless DC motor with integrated power and control electronics.

The integrated drive system is compact, avoids long motor cables, improves electromagnetic compatibility and reduces installation workload and space requirements, while built-in monitoring functions ensure safety and reliability.
The EMCA is equipped with a 24 V DC power supply and senses absolute position using a single-turn encoder as standard, or optionally via a multi-turn displacement encoder with buffering. An integrated holding brake is optional, as are a range of external gear units.
