Deterministic Real-Time Measurement & Control Platform

The Deterministic Real-Time Measurement & Control Platform is a high-performance solution for demanding measurement, control and automation tasks in industrial and test bench environments.Designed for deterministic communication via EtherCAT, the platform ensures synchronized data exchange with microsecond-level precision. This enables highly dynamic and time-critical control applications where accuracy, repeatability and reliability are essential.The system integrates high-resolution measurement capabilities for force, displacement, temperature and pressure signals, combined with real-time control of actuators and motion systems. It supports distributed architectures and enables seamless networking of multiple MCR nodes within complex test and automation setups.

Beyond standard configurations, we specialize in fully customized measurement and control solutions. From hardware adaptation and I/O configuration to software architecture and real-time algorithms, each system is engineered precisely according to customer requirements. Whether adapting to existing infrastructures, integrating specific interfaces, or developing new control strategies, we deliver tailor-made solutions designed for maximum performance and long-term reliability.Engineers benefit from flexible development options, including model-based design workflows using MATLAB®/Simulink®.

The platform supports rapid prototyping, efficient debugging and a smooth transition from development to series production.Its scalable and modular architecture allows easy adaptation to specific project requirements – from compact single-node applications to fully networked multi-axis systems.

Key advantages:

  • Deterministic real-time communication via EtherCAT
