It has built-in intelligent logic controller, PID controller and positioning control function, support double closed-loop control, anti-shock function, can be used for high dynamic applications, control is more efficient and accurate, and stable and safe. FC 360 supports FLUX vector flux control and PN network ring network, which is more efficient and more suitable for high-speed operation. Not only that, FC 360 also accepts more sensors, including temperature sensors and encoder feedback, etc., which is more widely used in the industry.
To serve a wider range of industrial applications
The power of the FC 360 is expanded from 0.37 kW to 315 kW, covering most applications in the industrial sector.
