    The PowerCube modules feature 32-bit technology, high-precision measurement of motor current, and reduced heat emission.

    The module's cube-shaped housing facilitates combining several of them in modular fashion as basic elements. Typical functions include pan-tilt, rotary motion, actuation, and gripper control. Single-cable technology ensures that the modules can be incorporated into existing servo-controlled equipment.
