Ethernet-enabled motor drives used in aircraft door simulator
EDM has used Baldor's Ethernet-compatible machine controller, with two servo motor axes, in a new design of aircraft door simulator for training aircrews to cope with emergency conditions. The high-speed network and servo control allows the door's opening characteristics to be varied to represent different fault conditions.
