MD x CANdle Ecosystem Key Features
Compact size, maximum performance
MD Series is design with high power density and seamless integration in compact actuators in mind.
Reliability
Actuators are the key element of each aplication, that's why the MD Series provide uncompromising realiability.
Increased energy efficiency
High-end MOSFETS transistors and state-of-the art control algorithms provide excellent performance.
Faster prototyping
MD Series can be connected to a PC or SBC via CANdle device (trough USB, SPI or UART), and thanks to ready to use C++/Python/ROS2 libraries everything works plug and play.
Up to 16 actuators on one line
Each MD Series controller has two connectors, which allows for easy daisy chaining and setting up multiple actuators at the same time.
Simple integration with MAB products
MD Series controllers work seamleassly with other MAB Series products: Power Distribution System, ME output encoders, SLIM electromagnetic brakes.
