Animatics was founded with the vision to be the first motion control provider to the automation market to provide true solutions instead of just motors. We first opened our doors in 1987, and in 1989 we released our first products based on the philosophy of understanding and satisfying our customer’s total need.
Currently, Moog Animatics has launched our Class 5 SmartMotor™ product line, with five times faster processing capabilities and expanded features. Optional to the Class 5 SmartMotor™ is communication, which utilizes a CAN serial point to link all SmartMotor™ servos, where any motor’s program can read, write or control any other motor creating one synchronized, multitasking machine from up to 255 compact SmartMotor™ servos.
