MD x CANdle Ecosystem Key Features
Compact size, maximum performance
The MD Series is designed with high power density and effortless integration into compact actuators in mind.
Reliability
Actuators are a key element of every application, which is why the MD Series provides uncompromising reliability.
Increased energy efficiency
High-end MOSFETs and state-of-the-art control algorithms ensure high energy efficiency and excellent performance.
Faster prototyping
MD Series can be connected to a PC or SBC via the CANdle device (through USB, SPI or UART), and thanks to ready-to-use C++, Python and 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 seamlessly with other MAB products: the Power Distribution System, ME output encoders or SLIM electromagnetic brakes.
